Hollow

I never wanted it to be this
Cold and you told me that you hated
Me and I thought you only asked for
This but I guess I never thought that
Far ahead
I don't know
We're at the start again
You're hollow
And now I'm wondering if we are
Going to somewhere I remember
Running away just takes me back here
I asked if you saw us when you looked that
Far ahead
I don't know
We're at the start again
You're hollow
I wanted fireworks but you
wanted to try and work on it
I wanted quiet words but you
said that I'd never talk about it
I never wanted it to be this
Hearing your breathing when I'm sleeping
Moving to get away from dreaming
Asked if you saw me when you looked that
Far ahead
I don't know
We're at the start again
You're hollow

Catching fish down by the river
Breaking rocks under the water's sending shivers down our spines
Singing songs about last summer
Telling lies but no one knows you're wrong or if you really mean it.
It's dark outside and you've shot
My train of thought, you knew what
I'm going to say and now it's
swept away with all the rain
And when they burn my house down
I'll ask you to come round
and watch the smoke rise as the
memories fade
Pictures taken from your birthday
But you're not in them, yeah I see your face but there's no one there
I thought I passed you in the hallway
I looked into your eyes, I see your face but you didn't see me

You Tried

We were out in the winter
There was no place to stay
No car or sign of hope
You went out of your way
Cast out a cigarette to the night
It's better to die with a light inside
You were gone within hours
I bet none of it mattered, you tried
I wrote you a letter
You rode every day
You were getting better
Think you wanted me to say
Cast out a cigarette to the night
It's better to die with a light inside
You were gone within hours
I bet none of it mattered, you tried
[instrumental]
Cast out a cigarette to the night
It's better to die with a light inside
You were gone within hours
I bet none of it mattered, you tried

Shut Up // Enjoy

Do what you want, I'm not down for it
Baby you make me want to twist and shout
Go and give them what they want
Face in the dirt, let them fight it out
Let the lights go down,
the curtain's falling away.
You know I'm running out,
But think you're running away.
I want you to think of something,
I know that you'll think of something new.
You know there's nothing else, there's
Nothing we can do
You know you're singing out of key,
If you look around you'll start seeing why
Are you who want to be?
If you're not winning why'd you even try
Let the lights go down,
the curtain's falling away.
You know I'm running out,
But think you're running away.
I want you to think of something,
I know that you'll think of something new.
You know there's nothing else, there's
Nothing we can do
I wish I could shut up and enjoy
Too much wrong the world for you to see that
I hoped you could shut up and enjoy
You can leave your parapets and see it
I wish I could shut up and enjoy
I wish I could shut up and enjoy

The Last Laugh
04:39

I heard you dropped your wallet
you laugh at all the boys with the whisky and the power
Watched them install it
disappeared for days and when the news came out, you said you saw it coming
The clock's still running
The flow is strong, it can't be tamed you turn the taps but there's a blockage.
Don't linger on it.
We played the game and when we lost, we turned off our electronics
Oh, look at you all, standing around here still
You've got your fingers on the trigger
Oh, what did you do? I'm shocked and astounded.
While this room burns, your clothes get bigger.
We sent you back the first time
You came back with a fire and watched as we all burned your house down
We all called you the bad guy
We couldn't breathe the air was thick with ash we freed you got the last laugh
I laugh the loudest
It wasn't me I did the best I could with the hand that I was dealt
Oh, look at you all, standing around here still
You've got your fingers on the trigger
There’s nothing left to do but shoot and,
Oh, what did you do? I'm shocked and astounded.
While this room burns, your clothes get bigger.
