Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Bury me softly in this womb
I give this part of me to you
Sand rains down and here I sit
Holding rare flowers in a tomb
In bloom
[Verse 2]
Down in a hole and I don't know if I can be saved
See my heart, I decorate it like a grave
You don't understand who they thought I was supposed to be
Look at me now, a man who won't let himself be
[Verse 3]
Down in a hole
Feelin' so small
Down in a hole
Losin' my soul
[Verse 4]
I'd like to fly
But my wings have been so denied
[Verse 5]
Down in a hole, and they put all the stones in their place
I've eaten the sun so my tongue has been burned of the taste
I have been guilty of kickin' myself in the teeth
I will speak no more of my feelin's beneath
[Verse 6]
Down in a hole
Feelin' so small
Down in a hole
Losin' my soul
[Verse 7]
I'd like to fly
But my wings have been so denied
[Verse 8]
Bury me softly in this womb
(Oh, I want to be inside of you)
I give this part of me to you
(Oh, I want to be inside of you)
Sand rains down and here I sit
Holding rare flowers in a tomb
(Oh, I want to be inside of you)
In bloom
(Oh, I want to be inside of you)
[Verse 9]
Down in a hole
Feelin' so small
Down in a hole
Losin' my soul
Down in a hole
Feelin' so small
Down in a hole
Out of control
[Verse 10]
I'd like to fly
But my wings have been so denied
