Blow Out
BLOW OUT (4:40) Song info
In my mind
And nailed into my heels
All the time
Killing what I feel

And everything I touch
[all wrapped up in cotton wool]
[all wrapped up in sugar-coated pills]
Turns to stone
Everything I touch
[all wrapped up in cotton wool]
[all wrapped up in sugar-coated pills]
Turns to stone

I am fused
Just in case I blow out
I am glued
Just in case I crack out

And everything I touch turns to stone
Everything I touch
[all wrapped up in cotton wool]
[all wrapped up in sugar-coated pills]
Turns to stone

Jonny's favorite Pablo Honey track and the band's closing song of choice for many of the early shows, "Blow Out" is one of Thom's more personal songs about low self-esteem. On the reissue of the Creep EP, a remix of this track appears as a b-side. The remix opens with Thom singing over a simple guitar line. This version has a much faster, feedback induced ending than the album version. [Radiohead: From a Great Height]
