Discover the story of the song > Little Fury Things – Dinosaur Jr.

The protagonist is feeling defeated and weak, crawling on the ground while his partner runs away from him. He tries to understand what is causing him to feel this way, but it only makes him feel worse. He imagines others who have been hurt by lies and sees a red cloud in his partner's eyes. The image of a rabbit falling and smashing him repeats in his head, as he continues to crawl and let his partner run away faster than he can catch up.
