Built My Home on Hollow Ground

Built my home on hollow ground
Too proud to grow from my roots
I got a few friends and I wish they were mine
Can't get close 'til I buy my time

There's a closet for the pretty ones
They have no eyes but they're a hell of a sight
Get too close and you'll find a bridge between you
Cross it to find your synthetic light

Built my home on hollow ground
Too proud to grow from my roots
I got a few friends and I wish they were mine
Can't get close 'til I buy my time

There's a man who lives in your favorite watch
He rides the second hand until he slips
He holds on tight, but no fail he falls
At twelve and lands on six

Built my home on hollow ground
Too proud to grow from my roots
I got a few friends and I wish they were mine
Can't get close 'til I buy my time

There's a school for trolls (A school for trolls)
That teaches them how to make a human cry: (A human cry)
Tell them that they're lovely, then say (Lovely, say)
You always lie
(Ha ha ha ha ha)

Built my home on hollow ground
Too proud to grow from my roots
I got a few friends and I wish they were mine
Can't get close 'til I buy my time

No, I can't get close
'Til I buy my time
