DIG MYSELF A HOLE

When the night turns black and heavy
And no religion's gonna save my soul
Well I fall into the darkness
It's like diggin' myself a hole
And when my words turn ragged and empty
And nothing here makes much sense
I'm lookin' for love but it's left no trace
Not a shred of evidence

And I'm feelin' so betrayed
Because they told me that I'd find love here
And I'm waiting for you like a soldier that waits
For a war that won't appear
And when the night turns black and heavy
And no religion's gonna save my soul
Well I fall into the darkness
I dig myself a hole

I dig myself a hole (4x)

When I fall into darkness
It's just like fallin' into you
I'm fallin' into you
When I fall into darkness
It's just like fallin' into you
And I'm fallin' into you

I'm impressed by your refusal
To let me be your slave
But when everybody loves you
I guess it's easy to be brave
And when the night gets black and heavy
And no religion's gonna save my soul
I fall into your arms, babe
It's like diggin' myself a hole

I dig myself a hole (4x)

And I'm feelin' so betrayed
Because they told me that I'd find you here
And I've been waiting for love like a soldier that waits
For a war that won't appear
And when the night gets black and heavy
And no religion's gonna save this poor boy's soul
Well I fall into your arms, babe
It's like diggin' myself a hole

I said I dig myself a hole
I dig myself a hole
I dig myself a hole
I dig myself a hole
I said I dig myself a hole
I dig myself a hole
I dig myself a hole
Dig it
Dig it
Dig it
Dig it
