Hollow Man

Emptiness, consuming me

Head in hands, I can hardly speak

Looking for solitude

Lost in humanity

True knowledge leads to a suffering

A constant quest, an endless dream

Searching for inner peace

Hidden so deep in me



CHORUS:

Don't wanna be a hollow man

Ain't gonna be the hollow man

Don't wanna be a hollow man

Ain't gonna be the hollow man



Sadness comes knocking constantly

Filling up my eyes for all to see

Peace will come some day

I pray that it finds a way

Darkness caressing my mind and soul

My spirit's rejecting, I'm feeling whole

Emptiness goes away

Fills with the light of day



CHORUS



BRIDGE:

I rise up like the Phoenix

Form the ashes of an older way

With wisdom gained, I turn away

I turn away

Hollow man find yourself some other prey



CHORUS
