I am the empty - I am the hollow
I am the silence - I am the sorrow
And I have nothing left to beg, steal or borrow
I am a hollow man
All the pain I feel - I can't let it heal
I keep tearing out the stitches,
Tearing out the stitches
I just keep holding on, 'til my life is gone
And tearing out the stitches,
Tearing out the stitches
I can't let go of what I don't know
So I cling to dust and shadow
It's always yesterday, and never tomorrow
I am dying here
All the pain I feel - I can't let it heal
I keep tearing out the stitches,
Tearing out the stitches
I just keep holding on, 'til my life is gone
And tearing out the stitches,
Tearing out the stitches
I can't remember how it feels to breathe
Suffocating inside these memories
I am nothing - I have lost it all
Out of the ashes, I will try to crawl
And all the pain I feel - I've got to let it heal
Stop tearing out the stitches,
Tearing out the stitches
I can't keep holding on, 'til my life is gone
And tearing out the stitches,
Tearing out the stitches
And all the pain inside - I've got to let it die
Stop tearing out the stitches,
Tearing out the stitches
I can't keep holding on, 'til my life is gone
And tearing out the stitches,
Tearing out the stitches
