Hollow

Lyrics

[Intro] [Verse 1] My heart is young like an infant It beats faster when I'm by myself Why can't I love from a distance? You make me nervous as hell I'm like an old dog learning new tricks I'm free with a collar still 'round my neck I'm ready for love or a quick fix Hello I don't believe we've met yet [Chorus] I'm tryin' to find a reason to abandon my peace of mind I'm tryin' to find a reason but I'm running out of time [Verse 2] Her smile has a way of deception And I'm sweet like a butterfly under distress Her skin is soft like paper Always smooth 'till you get to the edge (always smooth 'till you get to the edge) [Chorus 2] Now if I bury in the sand all my memories Can I abandon my peace of mind? Because the thing about the sand is that it slips through your hands A reminder that I'm out of time [Bridge] It's not an easy thing, you know? When you think as much as you breathe But sometimes I still fear I'll choke On these feelings inside of me Let's go to the fair, there's a sweet ride Never been on a date before My money is all you need, right? That's what I've seen before [Chorus] I'm tryin' to find a reason to abandon my peace of mind I'm tryin' to find a reason but I'm running out of time [Bridge 2] My blood is water with red dye I'm hollowed out with nothing inside Please paint me a heart with a palette knife I'm slowly waiting for the afterlife (I'm slowly waiting for the afterlife) [Chorus 2] Now if I bury in the sand all my memories Can I abandon my peace of mind? Because the thing about the sand is that it slips through your hands A reminder that I'm out of time Now if I bury in the sand all my memories Can I abandon my peace of mind? Because the thing about the sand is that it slips through your hands A reminder that I'm out of time, I'm out of time (OH!) I'm out of time! I'm out of time! I'm out of time! I'm out of time! [Outro] It's not an easy thing you know When you think as much as you breathe But sometimes I choke
