Hole In My Heart

There's a hole in my heart

Where my love once did dwell.

And I just can't seem to stop

This cruel and bitter carousel.

There is nothing I can do

That can change the way things are.

I am guilty, it is true,

And I won't make it very far.

There's a hole in my heart

Where my lover carved her name.

And ever since we've been apart

Nothing round here is the same.

There's a lump in my throat

That never seems to go away.

There's a rip in my coat

From the night I tried to stay.

Looking back I'm frightened to see

That the killer dwells within me.

I think that he's been here all along…

There's a hole in my heart,

And there's whiskey in my glass.

There's a shotgun in my car,

And a pain that just won't pass.

Everything seems so dark,

And I've extinguished all your light.

Know that I have no regard

For anybody in my sight.

There's a hole in my heart;

I stole a feather from your wing.

There are words stuck on my lips,

And this melody I sing.

And, the house that we once lived,

I drive by it every day.

And unless you can forgive,

I guess I'll be on my way.

There's a hole in my heart

Where my love once did dwell.

There's a hole in my heart

Where my love once did dwell.

There's a hole in my heart,

And this feeling I can't quell.

There's a hole in my heart,

Boys I'm on my way to Hell.
