[Verse 1] Hole in the world I can hear dead lovedones breathing Hole in the world Marble corridors and angels Ive been looking for Your Holy Face Through a window draped in lace A vision of amazing grace [Chorus 1] A lump in the throat and a bush on fire Dove coming down from the sky An itch in the feet, and a helpless hunger Inside, outside [Verse 2] Hole in the world Here every tongue cries Christ is risen Hole in the world I see old enemies embracing Moonlight falling on the blistered glass Someone whispers, Here at last Thats when I saw Your shadow pass [Chorus 2] A bump in the night, then an open border Bus ride over the moon A swim upstream in the living water Inside, outside [Verse 3] Hole in the world Mysteries and myths and wonders Ive been looking for Your Holy Face Through a window draped in lace Hole in the world Streets of gold and blood of martyrs Moonlight falling on the blistered glass Lightning flashes cross the purple sky I strike the nail and watch You die Im drowning in the tears I cry [Chorus 3] My heart is aching, and my legs are broken Waiting for the hand in the dark The table is set, and the door is open Inside, outside [Outro] Hole in the world Hole in the world Hole in the world Hole in the world
hole, world, blistered, draped, outside
