Lyrics

The Old Black Hole

Down the old black hole

Once for you, once for me

Once for the nighttime

Once for the nighttime

Down the old black hole

Arms ripped off by shooting stars

Shooting stars

Shooting stars

Down the old black hole

Rip the hills over and out

Heel and toe

Heel and toe

Down the old black hole

Kill the stars, shreds and shards

Heel and toe

Heel and toe

Heel and toe

Heel and toe
