I am the empty I am the hollow
I am the silence I am the sorrow
And I have nothing left to beg steal or borrow
I am a hollow man

All the pain I feel
I can't let it heal
Keep tearing out the stitches
Tearing out the stitches
I just keep holding on
Till my life is gone
And tearing out the stitches
Tearing out the stitches

I can't let go of what I've done now
So I cling to dust and shadow
It's always yesterday and never tomorrow
I'm a dying man

All the pain I feel
I can't let it heal
Keep tearing out the stiches
Tearing out the stitches
I just keep holding on
Till my life is gone
And tearing out the stitches
Tearing out the stitches

I can't remember how it feels to breathe
Suffocating inside these memories
I am nothing I have lost it all
Out of the ashes I will try to crawl

And all the pain I feel
I've got to let it heal
Stop tearing out the stitches
Tearing out the stitches
I can't keep holding on
Till my life is gone
And tearing out the stitches
Tearing out the stitches
And all the pain inside
I've got to let it die
Stop tearing out the stitches
Tearing out the stitches
I can't keep holding on
Till my life is gone
And tearing out the stitches
Tearing out the stitches
