Hollow - Fallujah

Callous always builds from pain

Shelter only protects from the rain

Give me a reason

Give me a reason not to fail

I’m trying to claw my way up

From despair

If I drown, if I drown

Trying to come up for air

Tell them I fought

But only made it halfway there

Hollowed out

From within

Breach the surface

Drowning me

All around

Something calls

Follow it down again

I cannot give in

This is treason, this is treason

This is treason

This is not how we’re meant to live

Give me a reason

Give me a reason not to fail

I’m trying to claw my way up

From despair

If I drown, if I drown

Trying to come up for air

Tell them I fought

But only made it halfway there
