Hole Hearted Lyrics


Life's ambition occupies my time
Priorities confuse the mind
Happiness, one step behind
This inner peace, I've yet to findRivers flow into the sea
Yet even the sea is not so full of me
If I'm not blind why can't I see?
That a circle can't fit and where a square should beThere's a hole in my heart
That can only be filled by you
And this hole in my heart
Can't be filled with the things I do
Hole hearted
Hole heartedThis heart of stone is where I hide
These feet of clay kept warm inside
Day by day less satisfied
Not fade away, before I dieRivers flow into the sea
Yet even the sea is not so full of me
If I'm not blind why can't I see
That a circle can't fit and where a square should beThere's a hole in my heart

That can only be filled by you
And this hole in my heart
Can't be filled with the things I doThere's a hole in my heart
That can only be filled by you
Should've known from the start
I'd fall short with the things I do
Hole hearted
Hole hearted
Hole hearted
...

Extreme is a rock band consisting of singer/guitar virtuoso Nuno Bettencourt, singer/lyricist Gary Cherone, bassist/singer Pat Badger and drummer Kevin Figueiredo. The band first formed in 1985 in Boston with then drummer Paul Geary (who later got replaced by drummer Mike Mangini) until the band decided to go on an indefinite hiatus that ended up lasting more than 10 years (1996 - 2006). The band's influences range from the progressive hard rock and elaborate multi-vocals parts of Queen, the energy of Aerosmith and Van Halen, as well as Beatlesque pop and a Led Zeppelin organic feeling. Consequently, Extreme's music is never easy to classify; it's not just heavy metal, hard rock, or pop —their albums cover all of that territory with a sweeping ambition and a social consciousness to match. Although a hard rock band, it was the Everly Brothers-style acoustic ballad, "More Than Words," that crossed them over into the mainstream — it hit number one and the follow-up single, the acoustic-based pop rocker "Hole Hearted," hit number four.

They released two albums in the hey day of glam metal but received diminished attention from the mainstream following the grunge explosion following the release of Nirvana's "Nevermind" in 1991. Despite this, they released two more albums before the hiatus. Vocalist Gary Cherone went on to join Van Halen in 1997, replacing Sammy Hagar, and the group released "Van Halen III." He left Van Halen soon after, in 1999 and formed Tribe of Judah, with fellow Extreme members Pat Badger and Mike Mangini.

The group reformed in 2004 for a short tour of Boston and Japan, as well as reforming in 2006 for a small US tour.

On november 26th 2007, it was announced that Extreme will come back in 2008 with a new album & tour.
