ECHOES

There's a hollow in me somewhere. It echoes like a cavern.
I can't make it disappear. I can't fill it at the tavern.
There's a constant drumming sounding,in the silence of the night.
It's a heartache's echo pounding, throbbing in the quiet.

(Chorus)
Echoes fill the gloom.
Visions crowd the room.
Memory is a fire in the veins.
The hollow never fills.
I don't think it ever will.
It still echoes with your memory and your name.

I plan a brand new start. I go through all the motions,
with a hollow for a heart,full of echoing emotions.
I just can't get the traction. I wander in a maze.
I can't move through the vacuum. I can't see through the haze.

(Chorus)
Echoes fill the room.
Visions crowd the gloom.
Memory is a fire in the veins.
The hollow never fills.
I don't think it ever will.
It just echoes with your memory and your name.
