I have no particular knowledge about what inspired "Nearly Lost You" by the Screaming Trees, but for nearly two decades, I've always assumed it was a love thing, y'know, he nearly lost her but he didn't.
Today it struck me, though, that it's probably more of a dude thing, like, holy shit, dude, when your eyes rolled back in your head for a minute, I thought I nearly lost you.
In that scenario, the dude lived, obviously.
