The room is crowded but the air is thin
I'm wearing the armor and i'm wearing the skin
But underneath the gold and the heavy pride
There's a silent screaming that's living inside
I'm a stranger to the mirror and a stranger to the street
Walking on the glass with these tired feet
The alienation is a heavy dark coat
With a hand that is permanently around the throat
The success is a pill that's getting harder to swallow
Living the life but feeling so hollow
I built the walls to keep the world away
Now i'm the one with the price to pay
Welcome to the beautiful hollow
A path of pain that you're ready to follow
I'm the villain of my own internal war
Internal war
The angst is a fire that i'm trying to drown
The self-loathing is the weight of the crown
I don't even know who i am anymore
Who i am anymore
The depression is a shadow that never leaves
A quiet little thief that always receives
The isolation is the only truth that is real
Forgetting exactly how the heart used to feel
The identity is slipping like sand through the hand
A lonely ruler of a broken land
Close the door
Kill the light
Lose the soul
In the night
Welcome to the beautiful hollow
A path of pain that you're ready to follow
I'm the villain of my own internal war
Internal war
The angst is a fire that i'm trying to drown
The self-loathing is the weight of the crown
I don't even know who i am anymore
Who i am anymore
Nobody's home
