Codine - Hole

My belly’s shaking and I crave it in my head

I feel like I’m dying and I wish I was dead

If I live till tomorrow, it’ll be a long time

Oh, I live out my days a slave to Codine

And it’s real, lord it’s real, one more time

On the day I was born all the grim reapers smiled

Said, «I'll get you yet, you demonized child»

I was older than my sisters that I left behind

Oh, I ran like the wind with my friend Codine

Oh it’s real, oh she’s real, one more time

It’s the reason I breathe, honey, it’s the reason I walk

It’s the reason I sleep and the reason I talk

But soon my devotion will all be repaid

The codine will kill me, that’s the bargain we made

And it’s real, lord it’s real, one more time

You’ll forget you’re a woman, you’ll forget about men

Try it just once, and you’ll try it again

You’ll forget about life, you’ll forget about time

And you’ll live out your days a slave to Codine

And it’s real, lord it’s real, one more time

And after I’m gone and the sad race is run

I’ll go down to hell where my life had begun

There’ll be somebody with me, won’t leave me alone

Oh, Codine will be there to polish my bones

And it’s real, oh he’s real, one more time

And after I’m gone and the morning sets in

Don’t wonder what I was girl, or what might have been

Mourn my sad heart and my tear-filled eyes

And the Codine I crave and I despise

Oh she’s real, oh she’s real, one last time

She’s real, oh she’s real one last time
