When the clock marks the time, but the meaning is gone And the words that we speak only mirror the dawn We are drifting in silence, two shadows alone Then love, love will hollow us out once more Love, love will hollow us out once more Why is the kitchen so quiet? You’re staring through the glass Does the weight of the years make the present feel past? There’s a ghost in the hallway of the fire we had But love, love will hollow us out once more Love, love will hollow us out once more You reach in the dark, but your hands find the air All the pride that we built is no longer there It’s the tragedy found in a perfect design That love, love will break every tie in time Love, love will break every tie in time Yes love, love will hollow it out once more Love, love will hollow it out once more
