You hold the words in your mouth
You're counting on your doubts
They keep you here in your safe space
Where you relive all your mistakes
-
Won't you hold your punch
Let me think that I've won
We're bending until we break down
Letting our feelings fade out
-
Did I go too far
When I shared my heart?
I guess I won't open up then
I'll bury all of my problems
-
Cover all of myself
Save it for no one else
You're cutting through my thoughts with fire
Reshaping all of my desires
-
I'm hollowed
And I need to feel something
I'm alone
I guess I'm good for nothing
-
Watch the sunrise
Reflecting in your eyes
-
Hollow
Hollow
I heard your voice in the midnight
You called and we're out of time
I watched my solace come undone
Now you're gone and so sets my sun
-
You're crawling out of a grave
I wrote down some thoughts to save
You claw through the words I say
You're back, but not here to stay
-
I hear the doldrums beckoning
Their voices make a choir serene
You've had your way and now you up and leave
All I feel is my heart shattering
-
Like an axe made of fire so sweet
Is the way that your eyes burn through me
I was stronger but you've left me weak
You gave me something that I cannot keep
-
You're saying that it's all over now
You've lied more times than I can count
To this pain I won't bend or kneel
My resolve is of hardened steel
-
I hear the doldrums beckoning
Their voices make a choir serene
You've had your way and now you up and leave
All I feel is my heart shattering
-
You won't get the best of me yet
I can feel the light on my fingertips
Coursing right through my veins
Now it's time that I make a change
-
I'm sorry for the things that I've done
I know I haven't been a perfect son
I wrote these lyrics so that you would weep
But for you my love runs so deep
