Keep Your Eyes On The Hole

Each day one rung lower
Another dollar deeper in debt
How can I explain to you?
I lost my footing on the final step
Now I rip the rubber stopper from the bottle
pour the liquid down the sink
I wiped away the film of sweat from my upper lip
Keep your eye on the center of the sun
If you blink for a second I may dissolve

You are the speck of light in the darkness
I am the hole
Keep your eyes on the hole
Keep your eyes on the hole
Keep your eyes on the hole

I am a loose strand
You may never turn on me
I can tell you precisely how the stories want to end
Keep your eyes on the center of the sun
If you blink for a second I may dissolve
I am the speck of light in the darkness
You are the hole

Keep your eyes on the hole
Keep your eyes on the hole
Keep your eyes on the hole

Keep your eyes on the hole
Keep your eyes on the hole
Keep your eyes on the hole
