"Hollow" lyrics
"Hollow"
Well they say your life was marred
And you were wondering if it would ever start
Stop
Sunlight on a razor blade
Three different souls and the lives they made
I grew up in the 80s in the Palisades
I was listening to Devo
And everybody catered to their needs
Were voted most likely to succeed
Holly came out, and Billy got paid
But Jenny got pregnant the first time she got laid
All my rage sits inside
When even the finest things
Are leaving you hollow
And all my days, left behind
And even the finest things
Are leaving you hollow
Cut to an interior view
Holly married well but so did you
One was black, one was blue
I was watching the days go by
Could you be seeing a silly dream
Where Billy lives on Prozac and nicotine
Holly got her GED, living in maternity
Nursing her broken heart for the love she lost
All my rage sits inside
When even the finest things
Are leaving you hollow
And all my days, left behind
And even the finest things
Are leaving you hollow
And the sky is blue, and so are you
Mary takes a drag off a cigarette
And the stereo is coming up behind her
Like she needs someone to remind her
That life is richer in a minor key
Bill and Holly disagree, but I don't think so
All my rage sits inside
When even the finest things
Are leaving you hollow
And all my days, left behind
And even the finest things
Are leaving you hollow
Sunlight on a razor blade
Three different souls and the lives they made
Well, Holly came out and Billy got paid
But Jenny got pregnant the first time she got laid

Dishwalla - "Nashville Skyline" Don't go on
Looking for the love
In the illusion of it all
The answers in the dream
'Cause I have been through mire and confusion
I am free
As far as I can see
Is Nashville skyline
Underneath it...
Gin Blossoms - "Mrs. Rita" I can see it in her letters on the paper with her pen
Her response is getting stranger, think she's coming 'round again
So tell me, Mrs. Rita, what's it say in my tarot?
Read my palm and tell me, why...
Matthew Good - "Alert Status Red" In the wilderness uncountable voices
earplugs for the birds and the animals
and blinders for your beast of burden, the will for learning
