God of the Hollow

Verse 1

I built you from pieces of fear and doubt,

Gave you my soul just to figure it out.

You were a vision I needed to see,

Now you take everything away from me.

You rose from the ashes of all I’ve destroyed,

A hollow creation that fills the void.

Kneeling before you, I’m lost in the dark,

As you carve your name deep into my heart.

Chorus

You’re the god that I made, and you take, take, take,

Every breath, every tear, every promise I break.

In your hands, I’m nothing but dust and bone,

A god of the hollow I worship alone.

Verse 2

You smile as the shadows dance in my chest,

Feeding on everything I’ve repressed.

I prayed for salvation but called down the storm,

Now I’m drowning in the love you’ve deformed.

Every word from your lips is a silent scream,

You tear me apart while I chase a dream.

I keep pouring my heart into your empty eyes,

You devour me whole yet still I compromise.

Chorus

You’re the god that I made, and you take, take, take,

Every breath, every tear, every promise I break.

In your hands, I’m nothing but dust and bone,

A god of the hollow I worship alone.

Bridge

I thought I could mold you into something real,

But you’re just the weight I don’t wanna feel.

Now I wonder if I could ever break free,

Or if you’ll take the last breath left in me.

Chorus

You’re the god that I made, and you take, take, take,

Every breath, every tear, every promise I break.

In your hands, I’m nothing but dust and bone,

A god of the hollow I worship alone.

You’re the god that I made, and you take, take, take,

Every breath, every tear, every promise I break.

In your hands, I’m nothing but dust and bone,

A god of the hollow I worship alone.

A god of the hollow I worship alone.

I’m still just a prisoner to your empty throne.
