Hollow Lyrics

I'm not capable of love
There's something broken inside of me
It doesn't matter how hard I try
I can't forget about all the times I cried myself to sleep

I'm far away from better days, but memories keep bringing me back here
The past is my enemy
Take a look at what it did to me
Try my best to hold it in
Gone on that Reposado
Sorrow is my only friend
I don't wanna see tomorrow
So much regret, stuck in my head and I'm left with a hole that I can't fill
Just like this empty bottle
My heart is hollow

I try to ease the pain with this weed smoke
The only thing that helps when I need hope
Things look strange through a peephole
Life's not a game with a cheat code
Man in the mirror right in front of me
All alone but I'm still in bad company
Running from something for so long
I can't even stomach the thought of trusting is crushing
I just wish someone would love me

I'm far away from better days, but memories keep bringing me back here
The past is my enemy
Take a look at what it did to me
Try my best to hold it in
Gone on that Reposado
Sorrow is my only friend
I don't wanna see tomorrow
So much regret, stuck in my head and I'm left with a hole that I can't fill
Just like this empty bottle
My heart is hollow

What's wrong with me?
Is it something I can't see?
I pray one day I'll get back on my feet
I can't open up
I'm swore to secrecy
In the end I found just what I need
And look at what it did to me

Try my best to hold it in
Gone on that Reposado
Sorrow is my only friend
I don't wanna see tomorrow
So much regret, stuck in my head and I'm left with a hole that I can't fill
Just like this empty bottle
My heart is hollow
