hole in your heart

First, I was pleased with the state of your unease

A step into the dark

Where no shadow leaves its mark

Someone once said the book of life's unread

Cause we don't understand the language that we live

Second, I was stoned on the opiate of your love

The poppies in the sun

Colored poison for everyone

A perfect refrain now a solitary strain

Of a voice that chases the notes

Where harmony once reigned

There's a hole in your heart where the love runs out

Third, I was saved by a phantom dream that came

To deliver me into the arms of a lesser kind of pain

Funny what feels good where deprivation rules

It steals the fire from your desire

And the light from your eyes

Fourth, thought I was cold

But it's you that's passing gone

Sometimes in life it's the body

Not the soul that lingers on

A perfect refrain now a solitary strain

Of a voice that chases the notes

Where harmony once reigned

There's a hole in your heart where the love runs out
