a history of holes - nine horses lyrics

Loading...

i’m having my day
my place in the sun
i’ll grow to resemble
the man i’ve become

there’ll be time for reflection
when i reach that plateau
when the war has been won
no farther to go

and i fear that it isn’t enough

i’m making a fortune
i swore to enjoy
these things i promised myself
when i was a boy

when i was a boy
and things moved too slow
and universes revolved around
things i didn’t know

when i was a boy
and i made mistakes
i was humiliated
til i knew my place

and i fear that it isn’t enough

ignorance hurts
injustice inflames
i remember the feelings
but forgotten their names

when i was a boy
i saw through their lies
i swore i wouldn’t become
the thing i despised
but events over take you
while you set your sights
on bigger game
on greater heights

god bless amnesia
and the things i’ve suppressed
i can reframe the image
i can discard the rest

a history of holes
where the pieces that won’t fit
with the story you told yourself
and your place in it

and i fear that it isn’t enough

so put on a brave face
straighten that tie
and speak like you mean it
give truth to the lie
