David Valles - Hollow Body Broken Mind Lyrics

Years later and you're still on my mind
Like a plague to the brain
Sabotage from the inside
I'm hopeless
I'm broken
Paralyzed by the mind I once trusted
I can't escape it
The life that I once led
I question everything my head is killing me
Anxiety around my neck it's suffocating
What more could you possibly say?
That one day it will change?
That the pain just will go away?
What more could I possibly change?
Rebuilt my body but my mind wakes up every day just the same
I'm trying to move on, I'm trying to let go, some days are good some days abysmal
It's kind of hard to stay strong when the one you count on is the one kicking you when you're down
Every moment every day
Self doubt has its grip on me
I'm just looking for a way to live in peace
Hollow body broken mind
Prison of my own design
Bricks of lead fill my chest as I fade away tonight
Why won't you let me be?
Why won't you let me breath?
Why won't you set me free?
Why can't I just put you to sleep?
F*ck
I wear my heart on my sleeve
But let's be honest
Is anyone even listening?
Do they hear what I say?
Do they understand the pain?
Who knows, but that's ok
I don't do it for them anyway
I do it for closure
I do it for me
With the weight off me chest
I can finally breath
At least that's what I like to think
I peel back a layer of me
I say my peace
But the pain is still there
Just buried deep
I feel like I'm broken
I feel like I'm weak
I guess this is my life
I guess this is me
No!
Every moment every day
Self doubt loses grip on me
I think I finally found my way to live in peace
Hollow body broken mind
But I've f*cking done my time
Pull this lead from my chest I draw the f*cking line
You don't own me
