Hollow

from Fuzzy Dice by Schweitzer

/

lyrics

She thinks what she needs most is a vacation
She thinks that would cure her great fatigue
I asked her what she’d do if she had
all the time she wanted
She said she’d sit at home and watch T.V.

But that isn’t living, that’s just existing
If that’s all you look for, that’s all you’ll find

Sometimes you will lose
It's a pain she's never faced
‘Cause she's brave enough to taste
But she feels hollow
Life is like meal
And she’s taking little bites
And she’s trying every dish
But she don’t swallow

She really does believe in ever after
That someday she will meet her perfect prince
But she’s running from the monsters
that hide inside her walls
And we who love her haven’t seen her since

And that isn’t passion, that’s just pain
If that’s what you look for, you’ll find the same

She barely has a clue of who she has been
So how can she know who she’s going to be
She’s mixing tints & hues
unaware she’s color blind
But she knows lonely is a shade
that you can breathe

Sometimes you will lose
It's a pain she's never faced
‘Cause she's brave enough to taste
But she feels hollow
Life is like meal
And she’s taking little bites
And she’s trying every dish

Life is like meal
And she’s taking little bites
And she’s trying every dish
But still feels hollow
The less that you demand
The more she’s got to give
And she’ll touch you where you live
But she don’t swallow

No, she can’t swallow

Schweitzer Los Angeles, California

My brother started writing songs and that was the spark that started me on my own songwriting course that would last the rest of my life. I chose to use my surname, "Schweitzer," for practical reasons, realizing long ago that pronouncing "Richard Schweitzer" was difficult. "Schweitzer Projects" under the "tindog music & stuff" umbrella is producing songs in the Pop / Pop rock or folk categories ... more
