Don't Go Hollow

I'm fading just failing
To cauterize all these wounds
Fading, just failing
Conviction brings another wave of black
Crashing over me consuming every thought
I'm never going to stop until I'm numb
Where did it go
Concealed mind control
With a little bit of confidence I drift into the red
With a little bit of confidence I drift into your head
Sift through all the blood bring it back bring it back
I'll never see it any differently
So you'll cover up the confidence
Behind these walls
Behind your walls
With a little bit of confidence I dread into the red
With a little bit of confidence I drift into your head
We went running to escape the black and white
Now as we fade to gray
Replace the battery
Go away
Bring back the gray
Go away
Just go away
With a little bit of confidence I dread away, away
With a little bit of confidence I drink my pain away
Go away
Go away
Go away
Sick of all this static in my brain
Sick of feeling so mundane
It never goes away
So I won't forget again
I know to cut away yesterday
I know to cut away actions replay
Sift through all the blood bring it back bring it back
I never wanted to see differently

Why do I constantly keep telling myself advice I'll never take
Act like it means something, or take it back
Stick to philosophies I set in motion
I need to keep myself going
I saw the moon frown and fall with all my hopes and dreams
Beautiful people do ugly things
And I saw the moon frown and fall with all my hopes and dreams
Beautiful people do ugly things
And I saw the moon I saw it fall apart with all my hopes and dreams
Ugly people do beautiful things
If I could start over again, I'd do it myself
Take the laces from my shoes, and knock the trophies off my shelf
I figured it out, so now I can rest
With everything I try, I'll try my best
Born in a hole with a rose tinted glass roof too high to ever bust through.
Well it seems unfair to me, but what is fair to those who are unable to see
Can't see the marred crags green under a green ceiling
Beautiful people
Why do I constantly keep telling myself advice I'll never take
Act like it means something, or take it back.
Stick to philosophies I set in motion
I set in motion
I need to keep myself going
And I saw the moon frown and fall with all my hopes and dreams
Beautiful people do ugly things
And I saw the moon I saw it fall apart with all my hopes and dreams
Ugly people do beautiful things

Tomorrow we could forget everything
She said the world was meant
Meant for you and me
As rain falls longer
Pretend the storm will pass
Not linger on yesterday
I feel the calm cold night
Won't be here much longer
I just feel my spirit dragging behind
I’m lost in waste
I can’t see the lines
You chose to stitch me inbetween
Sunshine won’t go away
Nostalgic colors now fade away
I know what’s in your head
Assumptions, corruptions
And now we’re two steps from ruin
In either way
I’m there to let you down anyway
Grown and grey
Don’t dream it’s over
She said to help her sleep at night
Don’t dream it’s over
She said constricting shallow words
Hollowed out and covered up so rest assured
That the marrow in your bones won’t be enough
To even keep your body warm
Sink or swim beneath again it covers up
I’m not strong enough to carry us ashore
Against the undertow
Don’t dream it’s over
She said to help her sleep at night
Don’t dream it’s over
She said constricting shallow words
Hollowed out and covered up so rest assured
That the marrow in your bones won’t be enough
To even keep your body warm
Sink or swim beneath again it covers up
I’m not strong enough to carry us ashore
Against the undertow

Patience is a passion, and I wrote the book
But for everyone I love, I just might took
Too much time for myself to figure out
How to get out of this hole that was dug for me
Unfair as it seems, I’ll choke and I’ll bleed as long as I breathe
And I guess I could have been anyone else
And I wish I was anyone else
And I wish I was anyone else
Patience is a passion, & I wrote the book
But I just might have took
Too much time for myself just to figure this out
Just to Figure this out
Just to Figure this out

I drove out to your house, to surprise you at home
I waited out front for hours
But there were no lights on, and I know how you get when its like this
I didn't pay attention to the flashing lights
coming from the east end, down ninety-nine
I never want to die, and I hoped you wouldn't too
But it's just too painful to think about right now
Seventy-five days from our plans, months away
from the best years of our lives
Time is your only enemy right now don't let it drive
you insane or apart
I couldn't stop myself from going there
Clung to a hole that dug itself for me
Throwing words like boulders, holding
Each others hands, kissing shoulders
And wrinkled heads, is this the peace I wanted?
Or the calm in between
all in all, I was never meant to be
the last thing that you said to me
Seventy-five days from our plans
Months away from the best years of our lives
Time is your only enemy right now, don't let it drive
you insane, or apart
All in all, and all in all
I took the ache from your heartbreak
As the colors ran together
In the watercolor of your tears
They bled, and they burned
A hole into my eyes
What could be more powerful than one last goodbye

I've been wondering, sitting in a dark room
With this LCD shining on my face
If everyone I ever loved got together here
Would they sing for me
Cold sweats and fever dreams
Would they sing for me
I'm sleeping I'm dreaming of oranges and peaches all falling from the sky
Big clouds and old towns but there's no sense or reasons why
I'm falling I'm screaming of past lives
It feels like big scary monsters sewing my eyes open wide
Being asleep shouldn't feel like this
Shouldn't feel like this at all
Soon I'll feel better than I do
There's lots of things to look forward to
A fever dream like a movie with unbroken dialogue extruding from the void
With only two actors and very little movement happening all at once
I want this to be over
I'm drowning in my sweat
I want this to be over
I want to wake up
I'm looking for some closure
I'm drowning in my sweat
I want this to be over
I want to wake up
Cold sweats and fever dreams

Was something trying to burrow in my brain?
I admit the fruit of your love never ripened in it
But you gouged your way into my eyes again
Your face is a push pin in frayed pages of sin
Written based on true events that unraveled within
A part of me you hold next to your heart so I can feel it bleed
A saga written by us that only we can read
Like a movie prop an actor holds onto
The sweater I kept just reminds me of you
Like an actress you wept and threatened to end this
The night I stopped holding you
I ripped the petals from my heart
Reciting this rhyme hoping I'd hear your prayers
Never sure of anything I do
Except the fact I might believe you
This hurt you, this hurt you not
This hurt you, this hurt you not
Flowers bloom in strange places
If one grew in my lungs id suffocate
And Though I feel like I'm choking
From this self medication & loathing
I know I'm right
I know I’m right
I know I’m right
But I may be wrong

And I'll try to abstain from this
And start to wander
This place I've never seen
But cannot recede
Pretend to fly vacate and compromise
This life I’ve made will be shared, I won't be buried with nothing
So don't, I'll hurry to my deathbed so I can be with you again
I’m gonna throw us under
Buried 6 ft below
The mask led through their lives
For they need no face
To lay waste, to insult, desire, disgrace
The mask led through their lives
For they need no face
To lay waste, to insult, deface, disgrace
Keep it all inside.
I need stories to tell the person who's tending my bedside before I die
Be a part of that or wish you were
Hold your breath until it hurts
It’s just a personal problem

Gonna take these pills to keep myself far from here
I'm never gonna find a way
I’m never gonna break away
I'm a sword without a sheath, getting duller every week
Omit or regress
Colours fail to change
Last call for the train going nowhere fast
She said that's what happens when you fuck around
But I don't know what I want
I know it's you when you're around
But I can't place my finger on it
I guess I'm holding out
Victimize your brain and walk away
Take off all your clothes and watch decay
Just another breath of oxygen
Just enough to let it sink its way back in
An apostasy of guilt you sit in sin
Go and pray
And wash this all away
Robots, Astronauts, Dinosaurs, Zombies
Robots, Astronauts, Dinosaurs, Zombies
Pirates
Put on your mask and pray
(Reaching out breathing)
Confide in yesterday
(My eyes are swelling)
Fill up the negative space
(She said that’s what happens when you fuck around)
Change the battery
(But I don’t know what I want)
Put on your mask and pray
(Reaching out breathing)
Confide in yesterday
(My eyes are swelling)
Fill up the negative space
(She said that’s what happens when you fuck around)
Medicate, medicate
(But I don’t know what I want)
Fuck that shit
