Dig yourself a hole and throw your asthma in
Throw the toys in after
Cover them with earth


Dig another hole and throw your conscience in
Drop your hiccups down

And arrange them well

Dig a deeper hole and bury all those words

Bury all the fangs
That they bared last night


Dig another one and put yourself inside
And close your eyes
It's comfortable



Crawling through the house in darkness

Cause I'm looking for a blanket
Yeah, I've got another hole to fill now
Gotta keep them going

Gather clothes and books and photos
Gather anything of value
And I'll cover them with dirt and compost

Make a place to lay my head



No light in this room
Just the glow from the oven
And the screech of their laughter is all you can hear

If you just close your eyes
You can pretend it's heaven
We might be crooked now

But we're even when we grow

If you catch yourself drifting

If your feet leave the ground
Warp your arms around a lamp post
Or just drift until you're found

If you could see me now
We'd laugh yourself to stitches
We might be crooked now

But it doesn't matter what we show
Cause we'll be even when we grow
