[Verse 1]

Somehow I lost my way

And now it's clear to me

All that I fought so hard to keep

Is all I had to leave

[Verse 2]

I know you can't hear me

And you won't believe me

But there's something I must say here

Before I fade away

[Pre-Chorus]

This is the way the world ends (again)

This is the way the world ends (again)

This is the way the world ends (again)

This is the way the world ends

[Chorus]

Forever we will be hollow

Forever we will be

Forever we will be hollow

Hollow again

Forever we will be hollow

Forever we will be

Forever we will be hollow

Hollow again

[Verse 3]

So I'm left here waiting

So long I'm contemplating

And now I know how it is

But now it's far too late

[Pre-Chorus]

This is the way the world ends (again)

This is the way the world ends (again)

This is the way the world ends (again)

This is the way the world ends

[Chorus]

Forever we will be hollow

Forever we will be

Forever we will be hollow

Hollow again

Forever we will be hollow

Forever we will be

Forever we will be hollow

Hollow again

[Bridge]

How will we open the eyes of the dead

When we are hollow

Hollow

And all along here I was told

By fallen men in their charade

That we could find a hope inside

The safety of this empty place

[Pre-Chorus]

This is the way the world ends (again)

This is the way the world ends (again)

This is the way the world ends (again)

This is the way the world ends

[Chorus]

Forever we will be hollow

Forever we will be

Forever we will be hollow

Hollow again

Forever we will be hollow

Forever we will be

Forever we will be hollow

Hollow again

Forever we will be hollow

Forever we will be

Forever we will be hollow

Hollow again

Forever we will be hollow

Forever we will be

Forever we will be hollow

Hollow again
