Digging Hole Songtext
von Johnny Long

I′ve been waiting while the world is digging a hole
I've been taking it in while the world is losing its soul
So, I take the shot while the world is in waiting
But the fact is that the earth keeps rotating

You′re taking breaking forsaking and oath breaking
But in the end, you will see and there will be no mistaking
That selfishness ignorance allowed all around you to perish, to perish
You've lost it all, yourself, beloved, all that was cherished

I've been waiting while the world is digging a hole
I′ve been taking it in while the world is losing its soul
So, I take the shot while the world is in waiting
But the fact is that the earth keeps rotating

You′re taking breaking forsaking and oath breaking
But in the end, you will see and there will be no mistaking
That selfishness ignorance allowed all around you to perish
You've lost it all, yourself, beloved, all that was cherished


I may not be precocious, righteous, or cognizant
I may not be palatial, ostentatious, or extravagant
What I am not is your savior, preacher, or prophet
Because nothing I could say to you will stop it

You′re taking breaking forsaking and oath breaking
But in the end, you will see and there will be no mistaking
That selfishness ignorance allowed all around you to perish
You've lost it all, yourself, beloved, all that was cherished

In this subterranean dance we find the roots of hope entwined with despair
The void we create both cruel and kind a testament to our shared human affair
The world is digging a hole, the chasm where secrets lie
Yet we′re all part of the grand design buried deep reaching for the sky

You're taking breaking forsaking and oath breaking
But in the end, you will see and there will be no mistaking
That selfishness ignorance allowed all around you to perish
You′ve lost it all, yourself, beloved, all that was cherished

And this more breaking forsaking and oath breaking
But in the end, you will see and there will be no mistaking
That selfishness ignorance allowed all around you to perish
You've lost it all, yourself, beloved, all that was cherished
