Southern Lights - Hollow Heart lyrics

I am longing for a comfort in this empty silence My thoughts surround me with this clouded deceit and I can't escape my loneliness It's hard to wage a war with one in your head My heart's a hollow one; you've got to give to receive I am caged but you hold the key just out of reach You reap what you sew, now take care with your seams I am lost in the dark, without a soul to share a single woe I am waiting for your voice to fill my heart and lead me home I feel safer when I am alone, with no one to harm or to hold Sleep come rescue me, cause there is only relief in my dreams This distance can't be closed by movement on a map Should I just fold my hands to begin my retreat? It's this existence that has me where I am and I can't bear that I feel so lonesome My eyes are closed, you're so removed and I can't make it alone No, I don't see the point in owing you one tenth of my respect Not dollars or sense, though a penny for your thoughts holds consequence Fate, it holds me out of reach I only trust who I know; I only trust who I see Is the path home paved or broken? I am lost in the dark, without a soul to share a single woe I am waiting for your voice to fill my heart and lead me I am lost in the dark, without a soul to share a single woe Life begins on the other side, where despair leaves me
