Cat Power - King Rides By
Here in this hole that we fixed
We get further and further and further
From what we must do
I saw you asleep beside a hole
This girl inside a hole
Your eyes blankened by the sound
And the thought of God
Where should I hang my head?
Where would you like for me
To hang my head
The one absent truth
The one horrible thing I saw
What you truly wanted to become
And who you thought I was
The fall, the fall,
Afraid, the blood
Runs deeper than the grave
It goes all the way down those tracks
Everybody bow your head
For the greatest inspiration
A complete contradiction
Of ways.
In this hole that we have fixed
We get further and further
From what we must do
I know this, I know this
You know this, you know this
In this hole that we have fixed
We get further and further and further
From what we must do.
I saw you outside that hole
This girl outside that hole
Your eyes glistened by the sound
And the light of God.
We get further and further and further
From what we must do
I saw you asleep beside a hole
This girl inside a hole
Your eyes blankened by the sound
And the thought of God
Where should I hang my head?
Where would you like for me
To hang my head
The one absent truth
The one horrible thing I saw
What you truly wanted to become
And who you thought I was
The fall, the fall,
Afraid, the blood
Runs deeper than the grave
It goes all the way down those tracks
Everybody bow your head
For the greatest inspiration
A complete contradiction
Of ways.
In this hole that we have fixed
We get further and further
From what we must do
I know this, I know this
You know this, you know this
In this hole that we have fixed
We get further and further and further
From what we must do.
I saw you outside that hole
This girl outside that hole
Your eyes glistened by the sound
And the light of God.
