There are mannequins around me disguised as my friends They're hollowed out and vacant with expressions painted on I can't see what they're hiding behind their fake-lidded eyes But I swore I felt before, I thought I left Hollywood behind If this is to be my last performance on this stage, I won't forget my lines I'll pretend that I don't see what's happening in this next scene For what it's worth, I'll place this curse: No matter what you do, you will never not be hollow. You, yes you, you were the very worst one of them all A superficial and flawed design; pheromones and alcohol I should've listened to the warnings, the anxiety and the grief Could've saved myself from yet another catastrophe If this is to be my last performance on this stage, I won't forget my lines and you will never forget my name I'll pretend that I don't see what's happening in this next scene For what it's worth, I'll place this curse: No matter who you're with, you will never not be hollow I've come too far, and seen too much, to let you knock me down again I've broken through the fourth wall, and I forced the charade to end You can cut and direct our past to try and suit your needs But your best is still not good enough to make it on the streets If this is to be my last performance on this stage, I won't forget my lines and you will never forget my name. An end to all your games. I'll pretend that I don't see what's happening in this next scene For what it's worth, I'll place this curse: No matter what you do, you will never not be hollow. Everyone's so fucking hollow.

It feels like a search for buried treasure A secret hatch with no lever I'm outside on an inside joke, and its so clever. Nothing changes around here, does it? It feels like always and forever This mountain's lasting, looming leisure We grow up fast, faint of heart from the pressure. Nothing changes around here, does it? Handcuffs made to measure Dreams have a twist-- half-lived endeavours We're sidewalk chalk but we'll fade with the weather Nothing changes around here, does it? Or does it? It doesn't.
