hole in my soul

bir aerosmith şarkısı. Her ne kadar itici bir tipi olsa da bu grubun solistinin, kulağa biraz arabesk gelen bir sesi var ve yavaş şarkıları çok içli söylüyor. Bu da içli bir şarkı ki, grubun nine lives albümünden ve sözleri şöyle,

i'm down a one way street
with a one night stand
with a one track mind
out in no man's land
the punishment sometimes don't seem to fit the crime

yeah there's a hole in my soul
but one thing i've learned
for every love letter written
there's another one burned
so you tell me how it's gonna be this time

is it over
is it over
'cause i'm blowin' out the flame

take a walk outside your mind
tell me how it feels to be
the one who turns the knife inside of me
take a look and you will find there's nothing there girl
yeah i swear, i'm telling you girl yeah 'cause
there's a hole in my soul that's been killing me forever
it's a place where the garden never grows
there's a hole in my soul, yeah i should have known better
'cause your love's like a thorn without a rose, yeah, yeah

i'm as dry as a seven year drought
i got dust for tears
and i'm all tapped out
sometimes i feel broke and can't get fixed

i know there's been all kinds of shoes underneath your bed
now i sleep with my boots on but you're still in my head
and something tells me this time i'm down to my last licks

'cause if it's over
then it's over
and it's driving me insane

take a walk outside your mind
tell me how it feels to be
the one who turns the knife inside of me
take a look and you will find
there's nothing there girl yeah i swear
i'm telling you girl, yeah,
'cause there's a hole in my soul
that's been killing me forever
it's a place where the garden never grows
there's a hole in my soul
yeah, i should have known better
'cause your love's like a thorn
without a rose, yeah, yeah
yeah

yeah
is it over
yeah it's over
and i'm blowin' out the flame

take a walk outside your mind
tell me how it feels to be
the one who turns the knife inside of me
take a look and you will find
there's nothing there girl yeah i swear
i'm telling you girl, yeah,
'cause there's a hole in my soul
that's been killing me forever
it's a place where the garden never grows
there's a hole in my soul
yeah, i should have known better
'cause your love's like a thorn
without a rose, yeah, yeah
yeah, yeah

tartışmasız bir şekilde aerosmith'in zirvedeki yıllarının en başarılı şarkılarından biridir. greatist hits albümünde de yer almış olması da sanırım bunun göstergesidir.

grubun en etkileyici şarkılarından biri.. tyler attığı çığlıklarla kendine hayran bıraktırır.
