"Holes" lyrics

"Holes"

There are holes in my shoes
There are holes in my clothes
There's a hole in my heart
Where you used to go - my heart
There's a hole in my lips
Where you used to kiss me
A hole in the hole
And nobody fits me now - oh, now

And I could find somebody new
There's a lot of fish in the sea
But every time I see one next to you
I know this hole's where
My soul wants to be

There's a hole in the wall
Where my fist found your face
There's a hole in the soul
Of the whole human race - your face
Holes in the flesh
Holes in the bone
Holes in this bed
Where I now dance alone - our home

And I could find somebody new
There's a match for every flame
Any time I strike one next to you
I know that hole will never be the same

There's a crack in the world
Where it holds up the sky
And it bleeds from the mouth
And it foams from the eye
There's a hole in this desert
My life has become
I am rock, I am stone
I am blind and deaf and dumb

There are holes in my shoes
Holes in my clothes
Holes in my heart
Where you used to go - my heart

And I could find somebody new
And finally be set free
But every time I see someone with you
I know that hole's where my soul wants to be
