[Verse] Slow burn Hard-earned wisdom "Stay close" "Hang on" Hollowed out by the process You're gone Eroded by excess [Prechorus] Yeah You're not wrong Slowly chipping away They pick at your flame [Chorus] You can't pour from an empty cup The "How could you" becomes a "You always do" This isn't something you could've lived through Protect your light You'll end up hollow From all the others If you don't keep some for yourself [Verse 2] A kindness that gets twisted It's sadistic The process I see it Eroded by excess By your people [Chorus] You can't pour from an empty cup The "How could you" becomes a "You always do" This isn't something you could've lived through Protect your light You'll end up hollow From all the others If you don't keep some for yourself [Outro] I see it
