Hollow
I’m hollow inside
Can you hear the sound?
There is nothing to hide
Take a look around.
The voices shout out loud
Do you hear them at all?
Even with silence in a crowd
You’ve missed the inner call.
Sometimes I’m screaming as hard as I can
Can you not hear that as well?
I’ve started to make myself a ban
Cause the empty spaces only swell.
Lately I’ve begun to whisper,
I’m sure its out of your league now?
The hollow walls only get crisper
While the emotions slowly make a bow.
I’ve tried to talk ample times
Yet you can’t really perceive?
Juggling between one lemon or two limes
My hope begs to deceive.
The depth is black and wide
Can you hear me now at least?
I need you to take a look inside,
To help me take down my hollow beast.
