I don't dream, it seems... They're brown, frayed, blue, faded, things. Do me your worst; I'm in your waters, So I'm your prisoner. Waist deep within a fountain on a frozen lake. Where I'm your shadow no more... I'm your shadow no more. I hear your words, Out of sync. You get the worst right out of me; And once I've lost, I'll be crawling out the center. I'm inside your walls, Out of reach. Falling backwards through a maze; And once I'm lost, I will hollow out the center. Entomb me. To be sure... I'm in your shelter, And I'm your prisoner. I'm closer... to dreaming. Caught between these hollow worlds. And I let the demons loose, to catch me in the waters below. I'm close now... to dreaming... I'm caught between these hollow worlds. But I let the demons loose, to catch me in the waters below.

"Hollow Worlds"
I don't dream, it seems... They're brown, frayed, blue, faded, things. Do me your worst; I'm in your waters, So I'm your prisoner. Waist deep within a fountain on a frozen lake. Where I'm your shadow no more... I'm your shadow no more. I hear your words, Out of sync. You get the worst right out of me; And once I've lost, I'll be crawling out the center. I'm inside your walls, Out of reach. Falling backwards through a maze; And once I'm lost, I will hollow out the center. Entomb me. To be sure... I'm in your shelter, And I'm your prisoner. I'm closer... to dreaming. Caught between these hollow worlds. And I let the demons loose, to catch me in the waters below. I'm close now... to dreaming... I'm caught between these hollow worlds. But I let the demons loose, to catch me in the waters below.
