You planted thoughts and grew them tall
They withered underneath it all
This darkness that I wanna keep
It's tucked right underneath my feet
Hollow body
My brittle bones they can't contain
The weight of when we speak your name
But in spite of everything
I curse you with the breath you gave me
Hollow body
Does your heart beat?
Hollow body
Does your heart beat?
Does it beat?
Does it beat?
And I fear that I can't fight
And I fear that I won't try
But I want you by my side
And you fill me with your breath
And you make me breathe again
Now all I can do is sing
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
Hollow body
Hollow body
Hollow body
Does your heart beat?
