Hole To Feed Lyrics
We are here, we can love
We share something
I’m sure, that you mean the world to me
When you get what you need
There’s no way of knowing
What you’ll get, is another hole to feed
Your name was the one that was always chosen
Your words and the kindness have set me free
Words can leave you broken inside
You’ll have to decide
I’m hanging onto my pride
We are here, we can love
We share something
I’m sure, that you mean the world to me
Shame has a hope that has kept us frozen
You open my eyes to a world, I could believe
This world has left me broken inside
I’ll have to decide
I’m hanging onto my pride
Words can leave you broken inside
You’ll have to decide
I’m hanging onto my pride
We are here
(humming)
This world can leave you broken inside
And you’ll have to decide
I’m hanging onto my pride
We are here, we can love
We share something
I’m sure, that you mean the world to me
When you have, what you need
There’s no way of knowing
But comes next is another hole to feed
We share something
I’m sure, that you mean the world to me
When you get what you need
There’s no way of knowing
What you’ll get, is another hole to feed
Your name was the one that was always chosen
Your words and the kindness have set me free
Words can leave you broken inside
You’ll have to decide
I’m hanging onto my pride
We are here, we can love
We share something
I’m sure, that you mean the world to me
Shame has a hope that has kept us frozen
You open my eyes to a world, I could believe
This world has left me broken inside
I’ll have to decide
I’m hanging onto my pride
Words can leave you broken inside
You’ll have to decide
I’m hanging onto my pride
We are here
(humming)
This world can leave you broken inside
And you’ll have to decide
I’m hanging onto my pride
We are here, we can love
We share something
I’m sure, that you mean the world to me
When you have, what you need
There’s no way of knowing
But comes next is another hole to feed

We are here We can love We share something I’m sure That you mean the world to me
Your name was the one that was always chosen Your words and the kindness that set me free The shame as a hole that has kept us frozen You open my eyes to the world I could believe
And words can leave you broken inside You’ll have to decide I’m hanging onto my pride
We are here We can love We share something I’m sure That you mean the world to me When you get What you need It’s no way of knowing What you’ll have Is another hole to feed
The games that we played Have left us hoping The gift that we've had The life that we breathe
This world can leave you broken inside With nowhere to hide I’m hanging onto my pride
We are here We
ve been chosen Weve been blest With the place we need to find in and openWe are here We can love We share something I’m sure That you mean the world to me When you get What you need It’s no way of knowing What you’ll have Is another hole to feed
Gahan describes the song as "about wanting to fill a gaping hole but not knowing what to fill it with, about sometimes the idea of having a hole to feed all being a figment of my imagination when I'm actually fine." Sounds like half the people I know.
i like the line"I’m sure That you mean the world to me" as if he's questioning the relationship
no matter what it means, the song is one of my favourites!!
I found thd tonight and it's been on loop for a while now. It seems to be the breakdown on some form of D/s relationship, then again there is a LOT of me in this song.
ummmm this song is about me
