Hole in Your Halo
Your flowers are growin’ wild in the west
They may be pretty but they’re poisonous
Behind the bars you’re falling apart
It’s not the first time you went too far
There’s a hole in your halo
Where the sun don’t shine
In the darkness I know
It’s a thin line
There’s a hole in your halo
Where the sun don’t shine
It’s been a month now plus a week or two
I’m the only one who’s come to visit you
Who’s gonna answer for what you’ve done
Behind your eyes there’s no one
There’s a storm brewin’ in an empty room
I stopped trying to keep my eye on you
Speak of the devil and he will come
Up inside the minds of ones you love
