Hollow

Is this inner peace?
Or is this just destiny,
pushing me to the brink.
This life Is not what it seems.
Dont try to save me.
This is my release.
I'm begging please.

I scream as fall to my knees.
I'm begging, I'm begging you please.
Dont let me fall asleep.
I dont wanna dream of anything.
Of anything.
I drink to retain my peace.
But me and this Jack are nothing but enemies.
I jump in water and sink.
Its filling my lungs and dont wanna breathe.

Is this inner peace?
Or is this just destiny,
pushing me to the brink.
This life Is not what it seems.
Dont try to save me.
This is my release.
I'm begging please.

I walk alone,
Through the dust and the dark.
Like a wet match just wishing to spark.
I am a riot.
a one man show.
Always surrounded but still alone.

I am broken.
I am diseased.
Waiting for a cause that I'll never see.
I look discouraged.
But dont be fooled.
I'm the one to put this hatred to use.

I'm not a prophet.
I'm not a saint.
My mind is chipping like a wall of lead paint.
Im always angry.
My thoughts all writhe.
I'm burning up from the inside.

Is this inner peace?
Or is this just destiny,
pushing me to the brink.
This life Is not what seems.
Dont try to save me.
This is my release.
I'm begging please.

I walk alone,
Through the dust and the dark.
Like a wet match just wishing to spark.
I am a riot.
a one man show.
Always surrounded but still alone.

Is this inner peace?
Or is this just destiny,
pushing me to the brink.
This life Is not what it seems.
Dont try to save me.
This is my release.
Im begging please .

I walk alone,
Through the dust and the dark.
Like a wet match just wishing to spark.
I am a riot.
a one man show.
Always surrounded but still alone.
