Hollowed Out

I'm hollowed out where a bright crux used to be
I'm shredding my skin like you wouldn't believe
I couldn't help myself, I just needed to grieve
While I lived vacant in a memory

(Backtrack)
Never thought I'd ever be back
(Think fast)
Never thought I'd ever be last
I'm selfish with time, it's my only worth
(Step back)
'Cause I'm feeling really outmatched
(Forced in)
While I'm dealing with the contrast
You're far from me, that's hard for me, tread carefully

I'm tongue tied inside
With a little bit of lust mixed in to the mold
Myself this solitude
I live in
Pretend like I'm never gonna need a friend again
I'll keep myself intact

Drift away to a place that's not so harrowing
To the back plate of my mind, digging up what's left to find
With the bar set way too high for me, I'm bound to sink uncomfortably

I'm tongue tied inside
With a little bit of lust mixed in to the mold
Myself this solitude
I live in
Pretend like I'm never gonna need a friend again
I'll keep myself intact

I'm tongue tied inside
With a little bit of lust mixed in to the mold
Myself this solitude
I live in
Pretend like I'm never gonna need a friend again
I'll keep myself intact
