lyrics

Is this it
Will it finally end
A hundred times before
Has made me numb to this
What do you have in store
Will you make me beg again
Just a victim you will use as you wish

I cannot forgive
And I won’t let you forget

Is this shadow real
Or am I falling
Nightmares follow me
Til consciousness becomes a
Hollow daydream

Am I sick
Or plagued by your contempt
I’d rather suffocate
Than feel you closing in
You always wanted
Your voice still echoes within
This hollow shell
You forced to cave to all demands

I cannot forgive
I’d watch you burn in the end

Is this shadow real
Or am I falling
Nightmares follow me
Til consciousness becomes a
Hollow daydream

Trapped inside this cage
You built around me, lingering in me
You’ve taken more than what you stole
And know your hollow ghost it still haunts me
Though you’re buried deep
Hollow
You’ve made me hollow
