Lyrics
0:27Oh god it took a while to come right back to me
0:35I'd give up anything if you'd just let me be
0:44No use in shaking me just leave me in my bed
0:52Cause mornings are the worst bit
0:56Mornings drag me on ahead
1:04I know I should have seen that hand behind your back
1:12But I was busy launching my own full-scale heart attack
1:21Yeah you sure taught me something when you took me down
1:29Make the best of moments
1:33Then make for higher ground
1:39Don't want to hear about the wind and how it blow
1:47As far as I see love is just a hole
1:58Love is just a hole
2:09Just like a tidal wave you crumble and divide
2:18With no regard for all the shreds you've left behind
2:26So now what can I do but tremble in your wake
2:35Sorting things you've broken
2:38From things you've yet to break
2:44Don't want to hear about some fate we can't control
2:52As far as I see love is just a hole
3:03Love is just a hole
3:12That's why you fall
3:21Love is just a hole
3:32Armed with demons plenty and pleasures oh so few
3:40Left to my devices can't say what I might do
3:48Well you turned me around
3:52But that's all over now
4:24Love is just a hole
4:32Love is just a hole
4:42That's why you fall
4:50Love is just a hole
4:58Love is just a hole
5:07Love is just a hole
Oh god it took a while to come right back to me I'd give up anything if you'd just let me be No use in shaking me just leave me in my bed Cause mornings are the worst bit Mornings drag me on ahead I know I should have seen that hand behind your back But I was busy launching my own full-scale heart attack Yeah you sure taught me something when you took me down Make the best of moments Then make for higher ground Don't want to hear about the wind and how it blow As far as I see love is just a hole Love is just a hole Just like a tidal wave you crumble and divide With no regard for all the shreds you've left behind So now what can I do but tremble in your wake Sorting things you've broken From things you've yet to break Don't want to hear about some fate we can't control As far as I see love is just a hole Love is just a hole That's why you fall Love is just a hole Armed with demons plenty and pleasures oh so few Left to my devices can't say what I might do Well you turned me around But that's all over now Love is just a hole Love is just a hole That's why you fall Love is just a hole Love is just a hole Love is just a hole
