  • Take me down
    6 underground
    The ground beneath your feet
    Laid out low
    Nothing to go
    Nowhere a way to meet

    I've got a head full of drought
    Down here
    So far off of losing out
    'Round here
    Overground, watch this space
    I'm open to falling from grace

    Calm me down
    Bring it 'round
    Too way high off your street
    I can see
    Like nothing else
    In me
    You're better than I wannabe
    Don't think 'cause I understand
    I care
    Don't think 'cause I'm talking
    We're friends
    Overground, watch this space
    I'm open to falling from grace

    Talk me down
    Safe and sound
    Too strung up to sleep
    Wear me out
    Scream and shout
    Swear my time's never cheap

    I fake my life like I've lived
    Too much
    I take whatever you're given, not enough
    Overground, watch this space
    I'm open
    I fake my life like I've lived
    Too much
    I take whatever you're given, not enough
    Overground, watch this space
    I'm open to falling from grace Writer/s: Christopher Anthony Corner, Ian Richard Pickering, John Barry, Liam Coverdale Howe

  • Terry from UsaKeli Dayton leaving the band was the nail in the coffin for the S.P.'s in my humble opinion.
  • Nick from Usawho is the girl in the pink knotted blouse ?
  • Famespear from TexasAlways loved this song, since the first time I ever heard it. "6 Underground" along with Portishead's "Sour Times" are probably two of the most memorable and loved Trip Hop songs, ever! "6 Underground" grabbed me from the very beginning due to its sample of John Barry's "Golden Girl" from the James Bond film, Goldfinger. I've always been a connoisseur of spy music themes and both "6 Underground" and "Sour Times" have that dark, ominous and sixties spy genre feel to them.
