Hollow Man Songtext
von The Flower Kings
Hollow Man Songtext
Once the emperor, now falling down
The working man will soon be king
Once a promise, once around the sun
Banners waiting for the wind
Hear that rattle and the marching drums
All their voices out of tune
When you found out there′s no promised land
Them fairytales weren't true
Without love you′re just a hollow man
Your words and gestures were grand
Without light you cannot save this land
With those grand illusions you just cause confusion
Thinking of a place you wanna be
Thinking of a place where you're roaming free
Holding on as fate lies in your hand
There's a dark flood of ink from this pen
Just as hope is lost on every man
Hear the words of wisdom from your long-lost friend
Without love you′re just a hollow man
Your words and gestures were grand
Without light you cannot save this land
With those grand illusions you just cause confusion
Thinking of a place you wanna be
Thinking of a place you′re roaming free
You're just a flickering light
Thinking of a place you wanna be
Thinking of a place you′re roaming free
You're just a flickering light
The working man will soon be king
Once a promise, once around the sun
Banners waiting for the wind
Hear that rattle and the marching drums
All their voices out of tune
When you found out there′s no promised land
Them fairytales weren't true
Without love you′re just a hollow man
Your words and gestures were grand
Without light you cannot save this land
With those grand illusions you just cause confusion
Thinking of a place you wanna be
Thinking of a place where you're roaming free
Holding on as fate lies in your hand
There's a dark flood of ink from this pen
Just as hope is lost on every man
Hear the words of wisdom from your long-lost friend
Without love you′re just a hollow man
Your words and gestures were grand
Without light you cannot save this land
With those grand illusions you just cause confusion
Thinking of a place you wanna be
Thinking of a place you′re roaming free
You're just a flickering light
Thinking of a place you wanna be
Thinking of a place you′re roaming free
You're just a flickering light
