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
