Hollow - Alan Erickson

Doesn't matter about the time we take Doesn't matter about the lies we make Go slow I think of how you're making me mad I think of all the love we had Feel so Always question never quenching your thirst Let me die when I lie to you first I follow When I'm with you it's from within I know you can see through my skin I'm hollow I need you to feed me once more I need you like I needed before I'll grow I'm floating I'm flying I'm dying I'm floating I'm flying I'm dying I said you needed like I needed before Said you need me that you meet at five You don't show I don't I'm alive My pulse slow My pulse slow I'm floating I'm flying I'm dying I'm floating I'm flying I'm dying I'm floating I'm flying I'm dying I'm floating I'm flying I'm dying (Repeated)

Tell me how come I'm surrounded by All these echoes bouncing off the sky When she takes me down abandoned streets I'll follow As the demon plays his violin String of soud repeats from deep within I can feel the space embracing me I'm hollow When the darkness falls asleep Steal my heart away from me Hold me while you rip my soul apart Yeah I'm hollow I'm hollow When the darkness falls asleep Steal my heart away from me Hold me while you rip my soul apart Yeah I'm hollow I'm hollow Hollow Hollow

This is our final moment One chance to say it all I knew this time was coming Chose not to hear the call I can't imagine a world now without you here You are my one and only I couldn't love you more Wish we could keep on running Go back to like before When you took hold of my hand I let go of the fear Like trying to breathe for the first time without any air Without you every step I climb just leads to nowhere I close my eyes and wish we could disappear, just run Anywhere from herе, anywhere from herе I just fall in and I fall out Must be something that can turn this around You keep me falling and there's nowhere to go Because a life without your love is hollow Hollow Just give me one more moment I'll tell you everything I'll lay my heart wide open I swear I'll let you in A million reasons you should stay I'll make them clear Like trying to breathe for the first time without any air Without you every step I climb just leads to nowhere I close my eyes and wish we could disappear, just go Anywhere from here, anywhere from here I just fall in and I fall out Must be something that can turn this around You keep me falling and there's nowhere to go Because a life without your love is hollow Hollow Night after night, you know it keeps me awake I can't believe we threw it all away I'm scared to death there's someone else in my place Wish I could find the words to make you stay I know we, fall in and we fall out But there's still time, we can turn it around You keep me falling and there's nowhere to go Because a life without your love is hollow Hollow Stay, stay til the morning 'Cause I couldn't want you Anymore than I do

Have you ever looked up at the sky at night And seen nothing Driven down a road that just don't lead to Something Turned over an empty hourglass Realize all the time you cant get back Then you're all alone And you wake up one day and she's gone There's a keys sitting on the kitchen table And a hallway full of empty air No car in the driveway parked Just some tire marks from when she Disappeared I guess I never really thought about Tomorrow And that love was just something you could Borrow Now I'm stuck with a big pill swallow I'm so hollow Ever had a hole in your heart so big it would Echo Every beat every post has a memory to Some how follows Ever pick up the phone to a dial tone Ever walk in a house to nobody home And just think to yourself how the hell did I Get here And there's a keys sitting on the kitchen Table And a hallway full of empty air No car in the driveway parked Just some tire marks from when she Disappeared I guess I never really thought about Tomorrow And that love was just something you could Borrow Now I'm stuck with a big pill swallow I'm so hollow Took everything ya needed Stole every little dream from me No signs no warning of the let go But ya let go You left your keys sitting on the kitchen Table And a hallway full of empty air No car in the driveway parked Still broken hearted girl cause you ain't here I guess I never really thought about Tomorrow And that love was just something you could Borrow Now I'm stuck with a big pill swallow I'm so hollow

All my life There you go Oh, please stay Just this once Anyway All my life There they go Oh, please stay For the night Anyway All my life There you go Oh, please stay Just this once Anyway All my life There they go Oh, please stay For the night Anyway

Front porch swing I watched the sunset Be covered by clouds Building in the southwest I heard the rumble As it light up the sky Silence came Silence went I heard the roar as it tore through town Whoa hell came down 15 square miles in less than an hour Ugly scars, shattered hearts 26 here and gone When the devil, came down to play Morning comes, I realize monsters don't come from beneath they come from the sky I close my eyes cry out to God you can wake me up any damn time you please Whoa hell came down 15 square miles in less than an hour Ugly scars, shattered hearts 26 here and gone When the devil, came down to play I lost three in 1970, the 11th of May when the devil came down to play Whoa hell came down 15 square miles in less than an hour Ugly scars, shattered hearts 26 here and gone When the devil, came down to play Whoa hell came down 15 square miles in less than an hour Ugly scars, shattered hearts 26 here and gone When the devil, came down to play I realize monsters don't come from beneath they come from the sky
