Hollow lyrics

I wake to find myself trapped In a frozen well, my hollow cell Those same dark thoughts that Creep through the window at night Would leave me paralyzed Eyes wide, searching for meaning In the fleeting nothings I’ve tried forcing that feeling But I don’t believe myself Starved for a truth to set me free I long for your embrace Scarred from the bitter memories That tell me I should change Eyes wide, sharp like a knife You’d use to pierce through my chest I’ve tried cutting the ties But I can’t seem to help myself Starved for a truth to set me free I long for your embrace Scarred from the bitter memories That tell me I should change But I am still my father’s son The stubborn one So I couldn’t listen Carve out the heart and set me free Before the colors fade I’ll pretend to lift this heart of stone Each time you draw near In the end I’d rather sleep alone But still I lie here Over and over, again and again Starved for a truth to set me free I long for your embrace Scarred from the bitter memories That tell me I should change But I am still my mother’s son The troubled one So I’ll keep my distance Carve out the heart and set me free Before the colors fade
