Hole In The Wall
Tim and Tess Play Songs Lyrics

Sky was blond like her; it was a day to take the child out back and shoot it
The sky was as beautiful as the girl he loved, but the pain of the situation was so great that he felt like he wanted to die.

I could have buried all my dead up in her cemetery head
He was so enamored with the girl that it felt like all of his problems could be buried within her mind.

She had dirty word witchcraft; I was in the deep end of her skin
The girl had a power over him that he couldn't resist, even though he knew it was dangerous.

Then, it seemed like a one-car car wreck, but I knew it was a horrid tragedy
Even though their relationship may have seemed like a small, isolated incident, he knew that it would be a disaster in the end.

Ways to make the tiny satisfaction disappear
He was always searching for ways to make himself feel better, but nothing ever seemed to work.

[Chorus:] Blow out the candles On my Frankensteins At least my death wish will come true You taste like Valentine's, and we cry You're like a birthday: You should have picked the photograph; it lasted longer than you
The chorus is a statement about his desire to die and how empty his relationship with the girl is. He compares her to celebrations like Valentine's Day and birthdays, but ultimately feels like a photo would have been a better choice to remember her by.

Put holes in happiness
He acknowledges that happiness can never be perfect and that it's important to recognize that in order to be truly happy.

We'll paint the future black if it needs a color
He's willing to accept a dark future if that's what it takes to be with the girl he loves.

Death sentence is now a story we'll be digging when you finally let me die
Their doomed relationship will be a haunting story that will remain long after they've both passed away.

Romance of our assassination If you're Bonnie, I'll be your Clyde
Their love is dangerous and destructive, but it's also passionate and intense like the infamous criminal couple Bonnie and Clyde.

But the grass is greener here, and I can see all of your snakes
He's wary of the girl's true intentions and motivations, and he can see the ways in which she might be leading him astray.

You wear your ruins well; please, run away with me to hell
He admires the girl's ability to cope with her own problems and wants to join her in whatever darkness she's experiencing.

[Chorus x 3]
The chorus repeats multiple times to emphasize the hopeless, melancholy nature of the song and the relationship it's describing.
