Verse 1: I wake up to another day, Put on a face, pretend I’m okay. They talk to me like I’m still there, But I’m just echoes in the air. I shake their hands, I play along, But I’ve been empty for so long. They say “you’ve got a heart of gold,” Guess it melted, now it’s cold. Pre-Chorus: And I can hear them whisper low, Like they all already know… Chorus: I’m hollow inside, nothing left to give, Just a ghost of the man they think still lives. I try to feel, but it fades away, Another broken soul that won’t be saved. I’m hollow inside… just trying to survive. Verse 2: Another night, another drink, Try to drown the way I think. But even in the neon light, I can’t find a spark inside. They tell me, “Man, just shake it off,” Like it’s a switch that I can drop. But I can’t feel the weight I hold, When I’ve been numb since I was whole. Pre-Chorus: And I can hear them whisper low, Like they all already know… Chorus: I’m hollow inside, nothing left to give, Just a ghost of the man they think still lives. I try to feel, but it fades away, Another broken soul that won’t be saved. I’m hollow inside… just trying to survive. Bridge: If I scream, would anybody hear? Would they even care if I disappear? Or am I just a shadow left behind, Wearing skin, but dead inside? Chorus (Powerful, Emotional Build-Up): I’m hollow inside, nothing left to give, Just a ghost of the man they think still lives. I try to feel, but it fades away, Another broken soul that won’t be saved. I’m hollow inside… (yeah yeah) Just trying to survive… Outro: Maybe one day I’ll feel alive… But until then, I’m just getting by.
