Hole in the heart lyrics by Karine Polwart
Hole in the heart by Karine Polwart
I made everything come undone
I made everything fall apart
I quit running to the finishing line
and I went back to the start
I found a great big hole in the middle of my life
Shaped just like my heart, just like my heart
I lost sight of what was under my feet
‘Cause I always had to be on top
And I was so drunk on love
That I didn't taste a single drop
I used to make everything run on time
‘Til I made the whole world stop, I made it stop
CHORUS
Now I'm watching the world move in slow motion
Now I'm finding it easy to breathe
For too long I was trying to walk
In high heels through a river of mud
For too long I was trying to talk
Over the sound of rushing blood
Where truth is a story scribbled in chalk
Just an hour before the flood, before the flood
CHORUS
I made everything come undone
I made everything fall apart
I quit running to the finishing line
and I went back to the start
I found a great big hole in the middle of my life
Shaped just like my heart
Just like my heart
First verse repeat
“Just like my heart” outro
