Lyrics

I don't like it here

I am dissatisfied with my current situation

But there's nowhere else to go

There is no alternative or better option

It's emaciated

It is depleted or lacking in substance

This rabbit racin'

This constant pursuit is frantic and stressful

Is there an echo in here

Isolation and repetition amplify my thoughts

Cause every answer to my fears

Every solution to my anxieties seems elusive

Is to keep on running

Solution to my fears is continuous evasion

Just keep on running

Emphasis on persistent avoidance

So what if I feel pain and find meaning

Exploring pain may lead to discovering purpose

Love the things that take my breathing

Embracing challenging experiences

And usher me away

These experiences guide me away

And what am I if I can't fight the feeling

Identity is questioned if resistance is absent

There's nothing gone that ain't worth stealing

Everything valuable is subject to theft

Or left for yesterday

Nothing is left in the past

I feel so hollow

A deep sense of emptiness

I feel so hollow

Repetition for emphasis on emptiness

It's my eyes that come

My eyes reveal the inner darkness

Out of the black

Emerging from obscurity

They give my questioned look right back

Confronted with inquisitive glances

A liars memory of my youth

Misleading recollection of my past

Hurt desire for the truth

Painful longing for truth

So what if I feel pain and find meaning

Exploring pain may lead to discovering purpose (repeated)

Love the things that take my breathing

Embracing challenging experiences (repeated)

And usher me away

These experiences guide me away (repeated)

And what am I if I can't fight the feeling

Identity is questioned if resistance is absent (repeated)

There's nothing gone that ain't worth stealing

Everything valuable is subject to theft (repeated)

Or left for yesterday

Nothing is left in the past (repeated)

I feel so hollow

A deep sense of emptiness (repeated)

I feel so hollow

Repetition for emphasis on emptiness (repeated)

There's no escape

No means of avoidance

There's no escape

No way to evade

There's no escape

No means of avoidance (repeated)

There's no escape

No way to evade (repeated)

So what if I feel pain and find meaning

Exploring pain may lead to discovering purpose (repeated)

Love the things that take my breathing

Embracing challenging experiences (repeated)

And usher me away

These experiences guide me away (repeated)

And what am I if I can't fight the feeling

Identity is questioned if resistance is absent (repeated)

There's nothing gone that ain't worth stealing

Everything valuable is subject to theft (repeated)

Or left for yesterday

Nothing is left in the past (repeated)

I feel so hollow

A deep sense of emptiness (repeated)

I feel so hollow (There's no escape, There's no escape)

Repetition for emphasis on emptiness (repeated) with an additional theme of inescapability

I feel so hollow (There's no escape, There's no escape)

-

I feel so hollow (There's no escape)

Repetition for emphasis on emptiness with a focus on inescapability
