"Down in a Hole" is the fourth song (twelfth on some pressings) from the 1992 album '' Dirt '' by Alice In Chains . The song was written by Jerry Cantrell about one of his previous girlfriends . He was at first hesitant to present the song to the band, feeling that the song was too soft, but after a positive response from the band, they followed through and recorded it, and it even became one of the five video-singles from the album. An acoustic version was performed for the band's '' Unplugged '' performance.


COVER VERSIONS

The song was covered by professional baseball player Bronson Arroyo on his 2005 album, '' Covering The Bases '', which lists the song as "Down in the Hole."
