Hollow

from Hummingbird by Rooke

/

lyrics

He muddles through as his soul breaks, Bm Bm G D
Giving all his effort as his heart aches,
Bending over backwards just to keep the peace,
Stepping sideways. Sinking silence, now that he’s
Hollow, hollow. A Bm A Bm

Never worry if the words are weak and wrong G A D G
Cause love is often understood,
And never worry ‘bout emotions all along
Because the motions ought to make the mood.
At least they should. D G

He told his friend about his hesitance,
Opened up to questions and some hard parlance.
No one should suffer on a silent sea
When a friend is there to lend an ear, cause friends can see
When you’re hollow, hollow.

He looked around and saw such opulence.
He didn’t dare to dive in decadence.
Soul-wracked rollercoaster—win a wild ride.
Tickets now on sale, but he must prove he tried.
Hollow, hollow.
