There is a hole in the world

There is a hole in the world,
Deep but dark,
A blue hinge and twirl.

There is a hole in the world,
Filled with not what's due,
The flicker of you.

There is a hole in the world,
Channel it deep now darling,
Wouldn't want you to feel used.

There is a hole in the world,
Nothing like you,
Just me in basket mornings.

There is a hole in the world,
With or without you.
