lyrics

The Pit
(J. Ward SOCAN / J. McDonald SOCAN)

Love, I don’t get enough of it
I need your love
Owe me back like you owe me
Nothing

I’m a bottomless pit, a broken record keeper
A ineffective affection seeker, I’m disaffected.
Increasingly disconnected, now is the winter of our
discontent, and I’m seasonally affective
I need the full spectrum, this little light of mine
I keep a itemized account of my colllllection
I learn a lesson then forget it in the time it takes to—
Wait a second, no I never learn at all, my mistake
Open up it’s been a stormy month of saturdays
Soak it up until you’re sure the sponge is saturated
Choking up I get a grip but I am sad to say
I am never satisfied my soul is agitated

Where would I be without the love that sustains me?
How can I make myself worthy?
How can I live with the heat in my heart
I’m so angry, I’m so thirsty

Love
I need your love
Owe me back like you owe me
Nothing

You won’t feel a thing, not the slightest sting
My heart would soar but for its flightless wings
That’s quite the singing voice, mine is hoarse from practically
yelling - I’d spell it out but of course, that would be telling
In the act of rebelling, I find a role to play
But three days later, the boulder will be rolled away
I’m going all the way, and I was
Born the same day as that song by Billie Holiday
Sure enough it's been forty years of everything
Hurry up I need more, I need my medicine
What do you mean I've had enough today?
Doctor I don't feel anything

Where would I be without the love that sustains me?
How can I make myself worthy?
How can I live with the heat in my heart
I’m so angry, I’m so thirsty

Love
I need your love
Owe me back like you owe me
Nothing

I don’t get enough of it
Love
