Hollow

Hollow
Carve the words from your tongue
Don't speak

Shadow
The shape of what I once was
A whisper I could once trust
Pulled from me

Who
Who's to blame a promise?
Spoke when it was honest
Broken the same

Oh
All I ever wanted
To crawl into your arctic
Hold you unscathed

Hollow
Hold the air in your lungs
Innocence is undone
Slowly

Who
Who's to blame a promise?
Spoke when it was honest
Then broken the same

Oh
All I ever wanted
To crawl into your arctic
And hold you unscathed

Swallow
Secrets you've been guarding
Time will leave you starving
And hollow
