The Hole Lyrics

Behind the house

The ground has opened up

And it's so deep, a hole

It's bottom can't be found

It sucks the air inside and makes quiet sea sounds

We sometimes stand

And linger at the edge

We like to dare each other how close that we can get
Glen Phillips - The Hole - http://motolyrics.com/glen-phillips/the-hole-lyrics.html
And there's a pact we made, if one should fall, the other follows in.

Started small with trash and rotten food

And then the neighbors came with cars and diving boards too

Then the government, midnight dumps of what we never knew

A letter came the other day from clear around the globe

It said œwe hope that you're the ones on the other end of the hole

Could you take a few things back, our country's getting full

Behind the house, the ground has opened up...
