Sorry Whole


Persons with epilepsy are advised to watch this video with caution, due to flashing imagery starting at 2:40.

Written by Bootsauce, from Sleeping Bootie, 1993



Oh, yeah

It's fine saying you know you're in ruin
Your life's in the spiral, can't flush it away
I hate talking, 'cause talking is easy
And life ain't a western, it's hell

I left you, you were digging your own sorry whole, you (x 2)

It's great thinking the world is changing
And now you must wake up, reality's here
You love nothing, and nothing is easy
You could've been something, but you don't care

I left you, you were digging your own sorry whole, you (x 2)

As time goes by, and you're not here
I wonder why, I look inside,
I see cheap change

It's nice being exactly who you are
But now you must wake up, don't pass on the world
I hate seeing your monkey in business
You border on nothing, who cares?

I left you, you were digging your own sorry whole, you (x 4)

Digging your own sorry hole
'Cause you were digging it, digging your own sorry whole (x 2)
I left you...


Notes
