Hollow Man

Iced Earth

Emptiness, consuming me

Head in hands, I can hardly speak

Looking for solitude

Lost in humanity

True knowledge leads to suffering

A constant quest an endless dream

Searching for inner peace

Hidden so deep in me



Don't wanna be a hollow man

Ain't gonna be the hollow man



Sadness comes knocking constantly

Filling up my eyes, for all to see

Peace will come someday

I pray that it finds a way

Darkness caressing my mind and soul

My spirits rejecting, I'm feeling whole

Emptiness goes away

Fills with the light of day



Don't wanna be a hollow man

Ain't gonna be the hollow man



I rise up like the pheonix

from the ashes of an older way

With wisdom gained, I turn away

I turned away

Hollow man find yourself some other Plan



Don't wanna be a hollow man

Ain't gonna be the hollow man
