Empty Shells Lyrics


Whispers of a thousand demons

Roaring in my head

Prayers of the dying

Wailing of the dead

I can hear the souls despairing

Deceived by empty words

Can't shut out the screams

Lies - fed me lies

As they raped my mind

The man became the gun

Life left behind

Eyes - gazing eyes

As I watched them perish

Faces long forgotten

Stares remain

I spend my days staring into the wall

No retribution, they won't leave me alone

The gun is gone but the memory remains

Forever haunted, the hollow man

Can't escape the nameless faces

Anywhere I go

Following my footsteps

Calling from below

By ghosts tormented never free

Where's the man I used to be

Still I hear them cry

Lies - fed me lies

Of eternal glory

How god forgives the sins

If you repent

Eyes - ghoulish eyes

As empty words consumed me

Reasons long forgotten

Scars remain

I spend my days staring into the wall

No retribution, they won't leave me alone

The gun is gone but the memory remains

Forever haunted, the hollow man

Hollow man - empty shell
