[Verse]
Running from time
Slipping through the cracks
Hiding from the sun
Got shadows on my back
Another five-day bender
Memories on the run
I’d swear it was fun
But now it feels undone
[Chorus]
My soul feels empty
Like a hollow drum
Beating to the rhythm of things I can't outrun
Life's under pressure
A stressful lust
Building on quicksand
Turning dreams to dust
[Verse 2]
The mirror tells stories I don't want to hear
A stranger staring back
His eyes clouded with fear
The laughter was loud
But the silence is loudest
Every joy I borrowed
Left me feeling the proudest
[Chorus]
My soul feels empty
Like a hollow drum
Beating to the rhythm of things I can't outrun
Life's under pressure
A stressful lust
Building on quicksand
Turning dreams to dust
[Bridge]
Did I trade my stars for a neon light
Burning so bright
It swallowed the night
The echoes are fading
They beg me to stay
But I keep chasing shadows
Running away
[Chorus]
My soul feels empty
Like a hollow drum
Beating to the rhythm of things I can't outrun
Life's under pressure
A stressful lust
Building on quicksand
Turning dreams to dust
