Hole to Feed Lyrics

[Chorus 1: Dave Gahan]
We are here, we can love
We share something
I'm sure, that you mean the world to me

[Verse 1: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Your name was the one that was always chosen
Your words and their kindness have set me free
Shame has a hold that has kept us frozen
You opened my eyes to a world that I could believe

[Pre-Chorus 1: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
And words can leave you broken inside
You'll have to decide, I'm hanging on to my pride

[Chorus 2: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
We are here, we can love
We share something
I'm sure, that you mean the world to me
When you get, what you need
There's no way of knowing
What you'll have, is another hole to feed

[Verse 2: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
The games that were played, they've left us hoping
The gift that we have, the life that we breathe

[Pre-Chorus 2: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
This world can leave you broken inside
With nowhere to hide, I'm hanging on to my pride

[Bridge: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
We are here
We've been chosen
We've been blessed with a place
We need to find and then open

[Chorus 2: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
We are here, we can love
We share something
I'm sure, that you mean the world to me
When you get, what you need
There's no way of knowing
What you'll have, is another hole to feed

What did Depeche Mode say about "Hole to Feed"?
