Another Hole in the Ground Lyrics

The future is nothing

And the past is nowhere

She repeats the mantra

Into thin air

tries to tell herself a story

Right before she falls asleep

Looking for a different ending

In a lucid dream

They tell her to push forward

Say don't let it keep you down

She picks up her shovel

And digs another hole in the ground

She remembers way too clearly

All the words she didn't say

Too polite to hurt his feelings

Too afraid to run away

Every morning when she wakes up

He's the first thing that she sees

How she'd love to erase him

From her memory

They tell her to push forward

Say don't let it keep you down

She picks up her shovel

And digs another hole in the ground

She told her friend and her parents

Their questions were the same

Had you been drinking

What is his name

Protecting men from their feelings

Protecting men from their shame

The price of her silence

The price he won't pay

They tell her to push forward

Say don't let it get you down

She picks up her shovel

And digs another hole in the ground

The future is nothing

And the past is nowhere

She repeats the mantra

Into thin air
