The hole |
The old woman finally caught me |
Sneakin' 'round her cave |
Her hair looked just like barbwire, boys |
And her smile just like the grave |
She asked me could I stay awhile |
I said I’d better go |
She slid her arm around my neck |
And sweetly whispered no |
It’s cold and dark and lonely here |
As soon enough you’ll see |
I’m oh so glad you stumbled in |
I’ve been cravin' company |
I cannot stay too long you know |
I left some friends at home |
Don’t you fret about your friends |
Down here we’re all alone |
What about my mother |
I can’t just leave her there to mourn |
You don’t have to think about her |
Just forget you were ever born |
I’ll disappoint my father |
You know he worked so hard for me |
If you have to pay your father back |
Just send him some misery |
I’ll miss, I said, a girl I know |
I can’t just leave there to pine |
She’s still got plenty of men to go |
I’m sure she’ll do just fine |
What about my little boy |
She said, he’s just like you |
Let a few short years roll by |
He’ll end up down here too |
Then her pale green eyes began to glow |
She placed her hand on mine |
She smiled and said don’t worry |
You’ll get used to me in time |
As her cold tongue flickered toward |
I spun myself around |
Made a dive for the passageway |
But the walls come crashing down |
Now her eyes were the only light |
My fevered brain could see |
But I tore myself away from them |
And fell down to my knees |
I’ve come too far, I can’t get back |
I beseeched the Gods of men |
Fame and fortune just laughed at me |
Then silence once again |
A whisper deep within |
Embrace the God of Love |
I lifted my face and through the tears |
I saw light fall from above |
I hurled myself into the wall |
I ripped and clawed my way |
Through the stinkin', clingin' loam |
Back to the light of day |
I crawled out into the wind again |
The sky upon my face |
I heard the earth sigh patiently |
As it slid back into place |
Now I’m back among the ones I love |
I’m loved by them in turn |
And it’s only on the darkest night |
That green eyed memory burns |
So walk my friends, in the light of day |
Don’t go sneakin' 'round no holes |
There justmight be something down there |
Wants to gobble up your soul |
