Lyrics:
[Intro] Rain clings to my collar, chill upon my skin Windows leaking stories, pressed against the din Cigarette ash drifting, time’s a bitter friend Wandering in circles that never seem to end [Verse 0] Dress shoes scrape the concrete, rhythm without grace Waiting for the daylight to recognize my face The air is full of answers, none addressed to me Passing through the morning quietly unseen ------ SoundCloud release starts here ------ [Verse 1] Shadow on the pavement, ordinary frame Tracing empty outlines no one cares to name Laughter drifting over, never meant for me Trading hope for habits, a silent absentee [Pre-Chorus] Every little secret slips away I count the cracks that cover yesterday [Chorus] I am only drifting, a paper in the wind Hollow like the promise that never did begin Restless for a purpose, missing from my hand All these vacant feelings I pretend to understand [Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, hollow man Oh-oh, hollow man [Verse 2] In my mind, a garden, overgrown and tired Wilting with the questions, quietly conspired Looking through the faces, mirrors left unclaimed I vanish in the background, a figure with no name [Pre-Chorus] There’s silence where I’m meaning to say Something bright to guide me, but I fade away [Chorus] I am only drifting, a paper in the wind Hollow like the promise that never did begin Restless for a purpose, missing from my hand All these vacant feelings I pretend to understand [Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, hollow man Oh-oh, hollow man [Bridge] Empty words unravel, threads left on the floor I search for something tethered, but I’m always wanting more Watching daylight vanish, shadows stretch and fall Questions unanswered paint their silence on the wall [Chorus] I am only drifting, a paper in the wind Hollow like the promise that never did begin Restless for a purpose, missing from my hand All these vacant feelings I pretend to understand [Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, hollow man Oh-oh, hollow man [Outro] Fading in the silence, footprints never last Time dissolves the reasons, anchored to the past If tomorrow finds me, will it understand The echo of a longing in a hollow man [Fade-Out Verse] Footsteps in the amber, drifting out of view Still I chase the meaning, lost within the blue Ghosts of all my choices, gather in the rain Leave their hollow traces, where only doubt remains [Soft Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, hollow man Oh-oh, hollow man
