annrenee: Music

There’s a hole in the pillow with the outline of your head
There’s a shelf no longer full of all those books
I never read
And the hook that held your cowboy hat stands
empty on the wall
but the hole that used to hold my heart
is the biggest of all

And I must have a hole in my head if I think
that things will ever change
no more illusion, end the confusion
you’ve done your choosing
just move on

I thought of lots of things to say,
and I practiced every line
you know its always harder for the one who’s left behind
and I know you need your distance
God knows you need your space
I’m hoping that you’ll find me much too hard to replace

But I just had a hole in my head
‘cause I thought that things could maybe change
no more denying, I’m sick of crying
just do your good- bying
and be gone

So I watch you pack your boxes
And leave without a trace
Signs of your connection that you’ll carefully erase
I know how to keep my distance,
I won’t cross your yellow tape
Play your “get-out-of-love-free” card
And make your escape

‘cause I would have a hole in my head
if I thought that things could ever change
slipping the trap now
widen that gap now
roll right off my map now and just fade away

it’s like I said, I must have a hole in my head
hole in my head
