In This Hole

Here in this hole that we fixed We get further and further and further For what We must do I saw you asleep beside a hole Your skull inside a hole Your eyes blankened by the sound And the thought of God Where should I hang my head? Where would you like for me To hang my head One absent truth The one horrible thing I saw What you truly wanted to become And who you thought I was The fall, the fall, Afraid, the blood Runs deeper than the grave It goes all the way down those tracks Everybody bow your head For the greatest inspiration A complete contradiction Of ways. In this hole that we have fixed We get further and further For what we must do I know this, I know this You know this, you know this In this hole that we have fixed We get further and further and further For what we must do. I saw you outside that hole Your skull girl outside that hole Your eyes glistened by the sound And the light of God. --- In This Hole - Cat Power
