Lyrics for Hole In My Soul

I'm down a one way street with a one-night stand With a one track mind out in no man's land The punishment sometimes don't seem to fit the crime Yeah, there's a hole in my soul but one thing I've learned For every love letter written there's another one burned So, you tell me how it's gonna be this time (one, two, three, four) Is it over? Is it over? 'Cause I'm blowin' out the flame Take a walk outside your mind Tell me how it feels to be The one who turns the knife inside of me Take a look and you will find There's nothing there, girl yeah, I swear I'm telling you, girl, yeah 'Cause there's a hole in my soul That's been killing me forever It's a place where a garden never grows There's a hole in my soul Yeah, I should have known better 'Cause your love's like a thorn without a rose Yeah, yeah I'm as dry as a seven-year drought I've got dust for tears, and I'm all tapped out Sometimes I feel broken and can't get fixed I know there's been all kinds of shoes underneath your bed Now I sleep with my boots on, but you're still in my head Something tells me, this time I'm down to my last licks 'Cause if it's over Then it's over And it's driving me insane Take a walk outside your mind Tell me how it feels to be The one who turns the knife inside of me Take a look and you will find There's nothing there, girl, yeah, I swear I'm telling you girl yeah 'Cause there's a hole in my soul That's been killing me forever It's a place where a garden never grows There's a hole in my soul Yeah, I should have known better 'Cause your love's like a thorn without a rose Yeah, yeah Yeah-yeah Yeah, is it over? Yeah, it's over And I'm blowing out the flame Take a walk outside your mind Tell me how it feels to be The one who turns the knife inside of me Take a look and you will find There's nothing there, girl, yeah, I swear I'm telling you, girl, yeah 'Cause there's a hole in my soul That's been killing me forever And it's a place where a garden never grows There's a hole in my soul Yeah, I should have known better 'Cause your love's like a thorn without a rose Yeah, yeah Yeah-yeah Good night, Taj Good night, Chelsea Cha!
