Hollow

About this track

Lyrics: Trapped beneath the surface, cradling my sorrow, I keep seeing patterns of a new tomorrow. Bargaining with muses, keeping ghosts at bay, Trying to remember how I lost my way. Gasping for salvation, sparks of sympathy, Hoping that, come daylight, they can set me free, Crafting odes to silence, I stand beyond the pale When I invite my audience to watch me as I fail. This is a script I can't rewrite, A cage I carved with too much care, I feign control with all my might But I am hollow everywhere. My structure holds, my seams are tight, Yet something monstrous waits inside, I kiss the dark and call it light, Then let it in, with arms spread wide. Seeking your attention was never worth the cost, 'Cause I keep having nightmares since our paths last crossed, But promise you'll remember how I made you wait While I was busy wallowing in misery and hate. I wield these words like weapons, but they were never mine, Now I'm so sick of fighting, (just show me a sign,) I am not asleep here, nor am I awake, I don't want to fade, (with every step I take.) This is a script I can't rewrite, A cage I carved with too much care, I feign control with all my might But I am hollow everywhere. My structure holds, my seams are tight, Yet something monstrous waits inside, I kiss the dark and call it light, Then let it in, with arms spread wide. [Bridge - In Romanian] Frântă-mi tace mintea-n palme, inima mi-o port Prinsă-n cuie pe sub pielea albă ca de mort. Clipa-n valuri se destramă, sângele mi-e viu, Visele îmi sunt capacul negrului sicriu. Gândurile-mi stau alături prinse de fotoliu, Muzele așteaptă-n patul camerei de doliu, Dintr-o dată năvălit-au fluturi în stomac, Într-o baltă de cerneală lasă-mă să zac. This is a script I can't rewrite, A cage I carved with too much care, I feign control with all my might But I am hollow everywhere. My structure holds, my seams are tight, Yet something monstrous waits inside, I kiss the dark and call it light, Then let it in, with arms spread wide.
