Dig yourself a hole and throw your asthma in Throw the toys in after, cover them with earth Dig another hole and throw your conscience in Drop your hiccups down, and arrange them well Dig a deeper hole and bury all those words Bury all the fangs that they bared last night Dig another one and put yourself inside And just close your eyes, it's comfortable
Crawling through the house in darkness Cause I'm looking for a blanket Yeah, I've got another hole to fill now Gotta keep them going Gather clothes and books and photos Gather anything of value And I'll cover them with dirt and compost Make a place to lay my head
No light in this room, just the glow from the oven And the screech of their laughter is all you can hear If you just close your eyes, you can pretend it's heaven We might be crooked now. but we're even when we grow
If you catch yourself drifting, if your feet leave the ground Warp your arms around a lamp post, or just drift until you're found If you could see me now, you'd laugh yourself to stitches We might be crooked now, but it doesn't matter what we show Cause we'll be even when we grow
