I used to like all of my friends
Some, I could call on every day
What's this new abyss that keeps on staring into no one
I've fed it all I have to spare
Ooh, I used to hear it
Ooh, I used to mean it

When a smile touched my face
Now it all seems as empty as this song
Spend my time re-living every slight I can remember
Every time that I broke down and you could see

And I'm only digging deeper

I used to have a clear direction
Somewhere to go, somewhere to be
Used to be on time if someone called for my assistance
Too rushed to know I'm in too deep

And when a smile touched my face
Now it all seems as empty as this song
Spend my time re-living every slight I can remember
Every time that I broke down and you could see
Oh please, please be gentle
It seems they're never, never gentle when you fall

And I'm only digging deeper
Only digging, digging deeper...
