Clung to the sweater
|
from the day you were born
|
Never knew better
|
That's what you swore
|
Mother heard you
|
'Cause the walls were thin
|
In Saturnine sweetness
|
And ratio din
|
No boy could spell you out
|
In the grass at night
|
Beneath the stars
|
You grew right
|
Past the streets
|
Where you were raised
|
Sneaking out early to a secret place
|
Like a hole in the wall
|
Like a hole in the wall
|
Into the bed
|
You hang your sleep
|
To watch your man
|
As he seeks relief
|
You cut out his heart
|
And watch him die
|
So we can know you
|
And that you're alive
|
As the hole in the wall
|
You are the hole in the wall
|
No one could know your son
|
And kisses and noise
|
Now you belong to them all
|
Awake to the dawn
|
And scratch your eyes
|
Alight the prayer candles
|
That you remind to
|
Send you a boy
|
That you could waste
|
A little piece of heaven
|
To set you straight
|
Through the hole in the wall
|
You are the hole in the wall
|
No one could tell you why
|
The tape's full of hiss
|
And sons who cry to the night
|
Of the dead
|
And the wishing ghost
|
Beating on you to drain morose
|
Through the hole in the wall
|
We are the holes in the wall
|
We are the...
