Hole In The Heart - Karine Polwart

I made everything come undone 
I made everything fall apart 
I quit running to the finishing line 
and I went back to the start 
I found a great big hole in the middle of my life 
Shaped just like my heart, just like my heart 

I lost sight of what was under my feet 
‘Cause I always had to be on top 
And I was so drunk on love 
That I didn’t taste a single drop 
I used to make everything run on time 
‘Til I made the whole world stop, I made it stop 

CHORUS 
Now I’m watching the world move in slow motion 
Now I’m finding it easy to breathe 

For too long I was trying to walk 
In high heels through a river of mud 
For too long I was trying to talk 
Over the sound of rushing blood 
Where truth is a story scribbled in chalk 
Just an hour before the flood, before the flood 

CHORUS 

I made everything come undone 
I made everything fall apart 
I quit running to the finishing line 
and I went back to the start 
I found a great big hole in the middle of my life 
Shaped just like my heart 
Just like my heart 
First verse repeat 

Just like my heart outro
