Big Black Hole by Malcolm Middleton Lyrics
I'll always be alone
Wherever I lay my heart
That’s my hole
~~~
If you will just shift up a bit
I’ll tell you a bit about
A one trick pony on a broken road
Pulling' a two-wheeled cart, overload
With fire and coals, burning’ bright
I have more than one reason not to sleep tonight
~~~
I'll always be alone
Wherever I bare my heart
That’s my home
~~~
You know I can’t sleep again tonight
My head’s full of fear and anger
I can’t save the ones I love from falling' into doom
And how am I gonna to tell you?
You’re not gonna to live forever
You have a short time ahead of you
So make the most
Make the most
Make the most
~~~
You’ll always be alone
Nobody can share your load
~~~
So look life in the eyes and kick death in the baws
There’s no answer to your questions, no round of applause
The best thing you can do my son is be good to your mum
Make sure the guy in the mirror, can live with himself
Don’t let anybody tell you, what you can’t see for yourself
Because you’re never gonna to be alone
If there’s a recording' of this song handy
And some futuristic retro DJ’s a fan of me
Because I changed your nappy, wiped your bum
I was the first one you laid eyes on, when you came out your mum
This song gave you a red neck
It may be all that’s left of me
We’ll have to wait and see
~~~
You’ll never be alone
We have the same stuff in our bones
~~~
I am my own worst enemy
But I don’t have a friend to tell me that
I am my own worst friend
It’s getting’ lonely
We’re all getting' sucked into this big black hole
Of depression and confusion and getting’ old
There’s no tunnel at the end of this light
Just a painted wall
~~~
I'll always be alone
We’ll always be alone
(musical interlude)
I'll always be alone
You’ll always feel alone
Wherever I lay my heart
That’s my hole
~~~
If you will just shift up a bit
I’ll tell you a bit about
A one trick pony on a broken road
Pulling' a two-wheeled cart, overload
With fire and coals, burning’ bright
I have more than one reason not to sleep tonight
~~~
I'll always be alone
Wherever I bare my heart
That’s my home
~~~
You know I can’t sleep again tonight
My head’s full of fear and anger
I can’t save the ones I love from falling' into doom
And how am I gonna to tell you?
You’re not gonna to live forever
You have a short time ahead of you
So make the most
Make the most
Make the most
~~~
You’ll always be alone
Nobody can share your load
~~~
So look life in the eyes and kick death in the baws
There’s no answer to your questions, no round of applause
The best thing you can do my son is be good to your mum
Make sure the guy in the mirror, can live with himself
Don’t let anybody tell you, what you can’t see for yourself
Because you’re never gonna to be alone

You’ll always feel alone
