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 |
