Hollow Shell (Acoustic) Lyrics by Dayseeker

What It Means to Be Defeated (Deluxe Edition)

2014

[Intro]
God, don't you think we should talk?
I'm having trouble knowing if you're really listening at all
If there's a hell, you might as well mark a spot for my soul
If there's a god, I'm sorry for I won't pass the gates
I'm not quite sure if I deserve to wake up
I want to sleep forever if it means never looking in the mirror
[Verse 1]
Son, this is not a mountain that I've put before you to fall from
This is but a small peak that I need you to overcome
I didn't give light to this earth just to watch you fall to the dark
[Chorus]
I'm so sick of feeling like I am a hollow shell
Of the one that I know so well
We all seem to show our true colors mean thе most
Only when we're sеconds from a grave unmarked
[Breakdown]
If you listen for my voice
It will echo for centuries
[Verse 2]
Everything beneath your feet
The colors to make the black and white fade
I exist in all you see
I need someone to see
The difference between who I am and who I want to be
[Chorus]
I'm so sick of feeling like I am a hollow shell
Of the one that I know so well
We all seem to show our true colors mean the most
Only when we're seconds from a grave unmarked
[Bridge]
I need someone to see
The difference between who I am and who I want to be
Oh my god, build me as I'm meant to be
Shattered son in the sea, know that where you sink is temporary
Because you'll rise and you'll see when you pass
What you find from the depths of your grave will end your suffering
[Breakdown]
Carry the cross until your bones break
It's never too late to change
