I Feel Fine, Just Hollow

For Josh Metzler

I am trying to make sense of this
I know I'll walk with you again, just not for now
I'm trying not to be too serious
You'd laugh at my tears, and be uncomfortable

I feel fine, just hollow
Like the breath is missing from my throat
I sit and hear your silence echo

I'm not trying to get over this
I just wish everything would stop, just for a while
The world doesn't miss your smile
Which is a shame, cuz it's illuminated now

I feel fine, just hollow
Like some breath is missing from my throat
I sit and hear your silence echo

Wristbands, rubber ducks, sleeping bags and dust
Momentos of a past,
Everything has passed
I remember when you stood up, broken and brave
And prayed over strangers that day
I want to be like you some day
I hope I can be brave

I feel fine, just hollow
Like the breath is missing from my throat
I sit and hear your silence echo

Have fun stormin the castle
I don't know how to say good-bye
I know one day we'll all expire
Some day we'll walk again, together in other skies.

I feel fine, just hollow
Like the breath is missing from my throat
I sit and hear your silence echo
