SMASHING PUMPKINS - Atom Bomb lyrics

rate me

Clung to the sweater

Since the day you were born

Never knew better

That's what you swore

Mother heard you

'Cause the walls were thin

In Saturnine sweetness

And ratio din

No boy could spell you out

In the grass at night

Beneath the stars

You grew right

Past the streets

Where you were raised

Sneaking out early to a secret place

Like a hole in the wall

Like a hole in the wall

Into the bed

You hang your sleep

To watch your man

As he seeks relief

You cut out his heart

And watch him die

So we can know you

And that you're alive

As the hole in the wall

You're the hole in the wall

No one could know your son

And kisses and noise

Now you belong to them all

Awake to the dawn

And scratch your eyes

Alight the prayer candles

That you remind to

Send you a boy

That you could waste

A little piece of heaven

To set you straight

Through the hole in the wall

You are the hole in the wall

No one could tell you why

The tape's full of hiss

And sons who cry to the night

Of the dead

And the wishing ghost

Beating on you to drain morose

Through the hole in the wall

We are the holes in the wall

We are the...
