I really like the word 'down,' it's softness, peacefulness & deep red color. The homonymous ultra-soft, pure and warm feather and the feeling of having come to the end, the bottom of things seem to me like two unidentical but nonetheless inseparable twins.
Like a good friend, whatever word you combine it with becomes greater: downtown, downbeat, lowdown; the way you can even do it: come down, go down or just down.
And it's always a little shady, alluding to darkness or the consequences there of but without any aggressiveness on its own.
I get carried away. One word answers are cool...
