carrie newcomer - the ten o'clock line lyrics
[verse 1]
gone with the grace of a black winged crow
with all the tact of an exit poll
i banked the curve bout the last back road
while you washed your hands in a silver bowl
didn’t wanna know, that’s the way it goes
[verse 2]
pretty words traced in the dirt
a whisper without weight or worth
nonsense symbols written on the wall
read by the light of a mirror ball
a final flat line scrawl, that was all
[chorus]
there’s a hole in the world
i’ve seen it coming for some time
this is how it always ends
up on the ten o’ clock line
there’s a hole in the world
maybe only a sp+ce
for something that’s been waiting
until i turn my face
until i turn my face
[verse 3]
the leaves recount with a rasping sound
a shadow cast on the autumn ground
it’s a lovely wish, it’s a tender sight
a promise made on shifting light
bad news from the start but still i gave my heart
[chorus]
there’s a hole in the world
i’ve seen it coming for some time
this is how it always ends
up on the ten o’clock line
there’s a hole in the world
maybe only a sp+ce
for something that’s been waiting
until i turn my face
until i turn my face
[instrumental]
[bridge]
i always thought i would start again
but i was so much younger then
perhaps no more of just the same
but a deeper song with a different name
the last one had its time up on the ten o’ clock line
[chorus]
there’s a hole in the world
i’ve seen it coming for some time
this is how it always ends
up on the ten o’clock line
[chorus]
there’s a hole in the world
i’ve seen it coming for some time
this is how it always ends
up on the ten o’clock line
there’s a hole in the world
maybe only a sp+ce
for something that’s been waiting
until i turn my face
until i turn my face
until i turn my face
