Hollow

I can’t sleep, I can’t hide

I’ve fallen deep and running high

I’m bewitched, I am charmed

Hold my hands, they are numb

Endless nights away from you

Are like stabs on bleeding wound

And days stages my make believe

That you are among the faces I see

And all the highways and dusty streets

Are terribly hollow and awfully discreet

I’m surrounded but abandon

I’m talking but you’re too far to listen

Have mercy on this wretched fool

Trying hard to make it through

Pretending she’s strong and unscathed

She’s fooling nobody but herself

Save me Emme, come home soon

Resuscitate my heart, make them bloom

Never let me go, don’t say goodbye

You’re all I know, you’re everything that’s right
