Hollow woman
Haunted by the memories and the lies
Haunted by the ghosts of the past
By the desperate, never ending cries
Broken promises
Flying silently in the wind
Begging for forgiveness
Aching for it all to end
Haunted woman
Raked with sorrow
Always on the run
Chasing a better tomorrow
Around every corner
Around every bend
The pain hides in waiting
Seeking me out to the bitter end
The face in the mirror
I don't recognize it as me
Old soul, old eyes
Regret is all I see
Chasing a future
A better day
Desperately longing
To put the past at bay
Hunting down the terror
Facing my fears
Looking towards the future
Drying my tears
Hollow woman
Haunted by the memories and the lies
Haunted by the ghosts of the past
By the desperate, never ending cries
