"Hollow Dreams" lyrics

"Hollow Dreams"

I wake up feeling heavy
When the air is paper thin
I pretend that I am happy
A battle I can't win
I know it's been a while
But my scars will never heal
When I tear them open every time
To remember how to feel

Ah, these thoughts keep taking over
Like a war inside my mind
They say I'm not enough
I can't do this every night
And I finally found the reason
I'll never get this right
Won't get this right

If I had to do it all again
I wouldn't have made myself believe
There's gold under the surface
We aren't programmed to be perfect
'Cause all that I've seen
Are these
These hollow dreams
These hollow dreams

Still fighting feeling worthless
Even if I win
Still searching for a purpose
Knowing I'll just ruin it
And I know it's been a while
But I'm still crumbling
I push it down all the time
'Cause I'm too afraid to feel

Ah, these thoughts keep taking over
Like a war inside my mind
They say I'm not enough
I can't do this every night
And I finally found the reason
I'll never get this right
Won't get this right

If I had to do it all again
I wouldn't have made myself believe
There's gold under the surface
We aren't programmed to be perfect
'Cause all that I've seen
Are these
These hollow dreams

If I had to do it all again
I wouldn't have made myself believe
There's gold under the surface
We aren't programmed to be perfect
'Cause all that I've seen
Are these
Hollow dreams
