I lay awake at night
Thinking of things I think you think about
I hope I'm in there somewhere
But my gut keeps telling me I'm not
If reality is based on what I see
Why shouldn't this world revolve around me
The truth is I'd care more if I only knew how
I'd hold my breath and wait
But I'd probably wake up on the floor
No closer to anything, to anything
And especially not to you
I could word for word at least a thousand songs
That would tell you how I really feel right now
But I'll make this simple and let you be yourself
I'm a hollow man invisible to everyone but me
I'm a hollow man but I see clearly
You keep me chained down
I pretend I'm trapped but I need the anchor
Face down to chase down all these dreams I'll never have
And I'll never know
My fate could reach the stars and I'd never know
(Yeah)
(I'd never know)
I'm a hollow man invisible to everyone but me
I'm a hollow man but I see clearly now
I'm a hollow man invisible to everyone but me
I'm a hollow man but I see clearly
You keep me chained down
I pretend I'm trapped but I need the anchor
Face down to chase down all these dreams I'll never have
And I'll never know
My fate could reach the stars and I'd never know
My fate could reach the stars and I'd never know
