The last song Layne Staley ever recorded with Alice in Chains, “Died” describes the agony and devastation he feels about the loss of someone.

[Verse 1]
I could climb until
I reach where angels reside
Ask around to find out
Where the junkies applied
You just upped and left me

Oh, oh
It's been deflating since you died
Since you died

[Chorus]

My heart is dried up, beating slow
Uh, oh
It's been deflating since you died
Since you died
You died
Died
You died
Died
You died
