Hollow Hearts

lyrics

Why have we come to this
These back and forth struggles
Through all the times we thought everything was fine
Time to look back through blackened eyes
Can you tell me how your world survives
When there's nothing, NOTHING LEFT FOR YOU
Can you tell me how your life is better off, BETTER OFF ALONE

I've been living with this hollow heart too long
I've done everything I can to be strong
The rain is falling I can't keep myself from shivering
Laid out for the world to laugh

So lay pennies on my eyes
Ferry me across the river
Sticks and stones will break these bones
And all of the words they will condemn us

And with these full minds and hollow hearts
I look back and wonder why
Why it came to this

SAVE ME, SAVE ME FROM THESE HOLLOW HEARTS
