Hollow
It's been a long five years
And I'm thinking 'bout quitting
Your smell on my clothes
Is all I keep sensing
But I can't keep away
The taste it lingers on and on
Breathe you slow just to
Keep me from feeling
Like I feel without you
The things that your doing
But I can't keep away
Your face is a hollow place
I been throwing myself through the wall
Paint me black and blue
I keep telling myself this is all
I can do
I keep throwing myself through the wall
'Til I know
That I can't keep away
Your face is a hollow place
Playing games with smoke
But you won't understand
That red head got me good
So good
I can't see a damn thing
But I'm fine with it
'Cuz I can't keep away
Your face is a hollow place
I been throwing myself through the wall
Paint me black and blue
I keep telling myself this is all
I can do
I keep throwing myself through the wall
'Til I know
That I can't keep away
Your face is a hollow place
It's been a long five years
And I think I'm finally seeing
The big bright picture
And it's time that I was leaving
Alone all alone in the seat of my car
Foot on the gas take me back to the start
How did I wind up this way
All the choices I made that day
I'm done with being this
Forever feeling this pain
I been throwing myself through the wall
Paint me black and blue
I keep telling myself this is all
I can do
I keep throwing myself through the wall
'Til I know
That I can't keep away
Your face is a hollow place
And I'm thinking 'bout quitting
Your smell on my clothes
Is all I keep sensing
But I can't keep away
The taste it lingers on and on
Breathe you slow just to
Keep me from feeling
Like I feel without you
The things that your doing
But I can't keep away
Your face is a hollow place
I been throwing myself through the wall
Paint me black and blue
I keep telling myself this is all
I can do
I keep throwing myself through the wall
'Til I know
That I can't keep away
Your face is a hollow place
Playing games with smoke
But you won't understand
That red head got me good
So good
I can't see a damn thing
But I'm fine with it
'Cuz I can't keep away
Your face is a hollow place
I been throwing myself through the wall
Paint me black and blue
I keep telling myself this is all
I can do
I keep throwing myself through the wall
'Til I know
That I can't keep away
Your face is a hollow place
It's been a long five years
And I think I'm finally seeing
The big bright picture
And it's time that I was leaving
Alone all alone in the seat of my car
Foot on the gas take me back to the start
How did I wind up this way
All the choices I made that day
I'm done with being this
Forever feeling this pain
I been throwing myself through the wall
Paint me black and blue
I keep telling myself this is all
I can do
I keep throwing myself through the wall
'Til I know
That I can't keep away
Your face is a hollow place
