Hollow Man

Drop

I keep the door shut

I keep the door shut

Verse 1

Three in the morning I'm scrolling again

Cheap little thrill I can't name

I tell myself this is the last one

Then the sun comes up and I do it the same

Somebody's daughter somebody's son

Just pixels and pressure and ache

I know every trick to feel nothing

And I use every one

Pre-Chorus

Don't call it love don't call it love

It never was it never was

Chorus

I'm a hollow man in a rented room

Paying for a warmth I'll never keep

I'm a hollow man and I know the truth

Every appetite is a chain on me

(Warmth I'll never keep)

Every appetite is a chain on me

Drop

I keep the door shut

I keep the door shut

Verse 2

Sunday I swore to the ceiling I'd stop

Monday I broke it by noon

My mother still calls me her good boy

She doesn't know what her good boy does

I shake when the wanting comes knocking

I answer it every time

I've burned every bridge I could stand on

And I lit the match with a smile

Pre-Chorus

Don't call it love don't call it love

It never was it never was

Chorus

I'm a hollow man in a rented room

Paying for a warmth I'll never keep

I'm a hollow man and I know the truth

Every appetite is a chain on me

(Warmth I'll never keep)

Every appetite is a chain on me

Bridge

Teach me to want something that won't eat me

Teach me to sit in a quiet room

Teach me to want something that won't eat me

Before there's nothing left to lose

Chorus

I'm a hollow man in a rented room

Paying for a warmth I'll never keep

I'm a hollow man and I know the truth

Every appetite is a chain on me

(Warmth I'll never keep)

Every appetite is a chain on me

Drop

I keep the door shut

I keep the door shut
