Hole Lyrics

A king without a crown
A  castle on a mound
Yeah  send me down the river to your truth
I’ll beg until I bleed
To wash my sins and free
Myself  from all the things I did to you

I  know that all of you are burning
Along with all the trees
I  know that all of you can hear me
I never say what I don’t mean

Barely conscious
Barely breathing
Maybe  I’m the one who’s sinking?
Barely conscious
Barely breathing
Maybe I’m the one who’s sinking?
Into my hole

We live inside our brains
A dangerous game to play
Counting all the hearts we knew we’d lose
I’ll cover up the sky
To watch the birds all die
Make sure to eat the Earth’s now rotting fruit
I know that all of you are burning
Along with all the trees
I know that all of you are burning


Barely conscious
Barely breathing
Maybe I’m the one who’s sinking?(x2)
When I’m broken
I deserve it
I’m a wreck inside the moment
Barely conscious
Barely breathing
Maybe I’m the one who’s sinking?
Into my hole

I’ve died a thousand times, my shadow stays in sight
He took my sisters heart, and cut the cords of life
Now my mother cries and she blames herself
Wondering what she did to create this hell. (x2)
She did?
She didn’t make this hell

When I’m broken
I deserve it
I’m a wreck inside the moment
Barely conscious
Barely breathing
Maybe I’m the one who’s sinking? (x2)
Into my hole. (x4)
