Holes In Our Stories
This isn’t a perfect conclusion, and Holes In Our Stories wouldn’t feel right if it had one.
You can still tell a good story if it doesn’t end.

We all have holes in our stories
What matters is if you fall into them
And if you don’t, then you’ll be alone,
For wherever our lives might head off to next
We all have holes in our stories
And creases across our heads
So it was written
There in the distance
An image of all of the things in our lives we regret
I punched a hole in the wall
The night that she called me and told me she left
Goddamn I hit it, so hard it indented,
And I miss a part of me I knew way way way back then
We dug a hole in the concrete
To lay down a few of our friends
The night they went missing
Nobody would listen
No wonder our bonfires haven’t burned bright ever since
We all have holes in our stories
What matters is if you fall into them
And if you don’t, then you’ll be alone,
For wherever our lives might head off to next
We all have holes in our stories
And creases across our heads
So it was written
There in the distance
An image of all of the things in our lives we regret
We all have holes in our stories
What matters is if you fall into them
We all have holes in our stories
What matters is if you fall into them
We all have holes in our stories
Where do we go from here my friend?
We all have holes in our stories
Where do we go from here my friend?
If they all get wrinkles before me?
Where do we go from here my friend?
We all have holes in our stories
What matters is if you fall into them
We all have holes in our stories
So where do we go from here my friend?
We all have holes in our stories
Promise me you won’t fall into them
Again.
