"Honey" lyrics - HOLE

HOLE
"Honey"
(Micko Larkin / Courtney Love)

Anguish & misery fall here like a dead star
& everything you ever said
Now tears me all apart.

He goes down, down to his bitter end
He knows now, now it's the gutter
He goes down, down to his bitter end
He knows now, now you can't touch him.

Pray for the rain.
Are you up there?
Do you listen?
It's the terror & the pain & I
Just wait for you to have risen.

He goes down, down to his only friend
He knows now, now that you love him
He goes down, down to his bitter end
He knows now, now you can't touch him.

I hold on to you like the death of an angel
& I hold on to you with all the life that's in me.

Why was I not good enough to save you from destruction?
& your end & my beginning
Oh, they need no introduction.

He goes down, down to his only friend
He knows now, now that you love him
He goes down, down to his bitter end
He knows now, now you can't touch him.

Sweet as Honey
I'll live forever.

Pure as first love
Just come home.

I hold on to you like the death of angel
& I hold on to you with all the life that's in me.

& I hold on to you like the death of an angel
& I hold on to you with all the hope I have left.

& I hold on to you
Watch the death of an angel
& I hold on to you
Until the light pours like Honey.
