**hollow**

wrenching
dragging
feeling hollow
could this mean anything

tripping
falling
and i follow
could i go back to nothing

no

so you left
and i swallowed
found my way
with nothing

so you left
and i followed
till i found
something
here
right here

away from you
i take back my obsession
found a way to live on
now i quench my lonely questions
found a way to move on
here
without you
right here

i swallowed back those anguished tears
choked it back for something better
i move right past this bitter shadow
forgetting how quiet i was for all those years
cause i found a reason i could live for
a reason to move to higher ground
found a reason i should live for
broke the chains and came unbound
here
right here
without you

so you left
and i swallowed
found my way
with nothing

so you left
and i followed
till i found something
here
right here
