the walls are dripping. the cement's aching. i'm awake. it's not a photo. it's not a picture you can take. a hollow grave is an empty home. a hollow grave is all alone. this picture's blurry. the frame is cracking. this is fake. the walls aren't sinking. the ceiling's rising. i escape. a hollow grave is an empty home. a hollow head is an empty water hole. i'm always thinking. it's just a thing that i do: laying in bed, hiding my head, thinking of new ways to procrastinate, thinking of brand neat new fates. don't be so sad to see me go. i'm just a youth in transit. i'm just a breakheart bandit. but my heart is no empty hand, and my stare is no empty demand. the situation's a comedown. you sit, you sit, you situate. you sit, you sit, you sit, you wait. a life like this, production's amiss. production's a myth. production is a miss. i'm always thinking, "my life revolves around empty bottles and cans, clap your hands. don't make demands." i'm just a young kid, i'm just a young man. decision, decision, indecision. i'm always thinking, "my life revolves around empty bottles and cans, clap your motherfucking hands." the same decision, the same decision, indecision all the way. your seed is running home free, he's running right by me.
