Lyrics:
I’ve got two grey hounds, they don’t really go out and work much
They’re more of my muscle for muscle than it’s worth
I’ve got a caffeine system and a pouring arm, I grow cannabis in my back garden
It’s much more hassle more hassle than it’s worth
My parents bought me a soul when I was younger I didnt look after it I didn’t feed its hunger I put it in the cupboard only when they come around
I am hollow, broken, borrowed
I am hollow, going solo
I am falling but focused I’m dreading the outlook
They asked me if I’m ready to come out yet and I said no way, no way, no way
I am hollow, broken, borrowed
I grow scarecrows in my back garden, keeps away the kids and the rust
But they scare me more, more and more than it’s worth
I’ve got a crushing sense of awareness and the overwhelming urge to be kind
And it hits me more more and more than I mind
My parents bought me a soul when I was younger I didnt look after it I didn’t feed its hunger I put it in the cupboard only when they come around
I am, hollow, broken, borrowed, I am, hollow going solo
I’m falling but focused
I am hollow, broken, borrowed
I am hollow, going solo
I am falling but focused I’m dreading the outlook
They asked me if I’m ready to come out yet and I said no way, no way, no way
I am hollow, broken, borrowed
