Hollow Weight

Living like the drugged,
Stolen like my sleep
Silent aging dove
Never stop to breathe
Swollen like my tongue
Pushed beyond my means
Keep your distance
Please don’t touch
The dirty sick and free
Oh my captain, are we sinking down
Please believe, believe in me,
Am I wearing out
Oh my captain of the children’s crown
Don’t believe in what you see,
Help us make it out
Can you feel the love
Hidden 'neath the hate
Glory rise above,
Filled with hollow weight
Show not what you feel
Say not what you think
Please don’t come undone now
And work until you break
Oh my captain, are we sinking down
Please believe, believe in me,
Am I wearing out
Oh my captain of the children’s crown
Don’t believe in what you see,
Help us make it out
