Hollow Unknown

 

We're walking in shadow,

we're feeling so insecure.

Everywhere our demons follow,

their contorted faces obscure.

We've all played the game,

but now it's all for real.

For everyone it's the same,

we pretend to know how we feel.

 

Hide, hide before it's too late,

don't let them figure you out.

Hide, hide your hidden hate,

ready your voice and shout!

 

Our past demons are chasing

us through the woods tonight.

Our hope is quickly fading,

we're losing our only light.

We'd give all we have to give,

we would die to set this in stone.

We would love to know how to live,

we would love not to be alone.

 

Feel, feel, you know you can,

but don't let them know.

Feel, feel the strength of man,

hold it and never let go!

 

Damn my soul if you must,

but let me say my piece.

You've betrayed my trust,

will your falseness ever cease?

We're all just selfish people,

we're a simple means to an end.

Inside we're unbearably feeble,

we have no honour left to defend.

 

Run, run, go as fast as you can,

desert all that you have known.

Run, run, you'll never fit in with man,

just a worthless hollow unknown!
