"Hollow" lyrics - MAISIE PETERS

MAISIE PETERS
"Hollow"

I wasn't broken till you tried to fix me
I wasn't lonely till you came around
It's all magic till you see the trick, babe
It was eye to eye to word of mouth
We had a future till you made it history
I was yours until you let me down
I'd rather see love as an optimistic
Than know the things that I know now

[Pre-Chorus:]
The casualty of love is the price of being free
You said this is something that we both need
So how do you feel?
'Cause I feel

[Chorus:]
Hollow
This hurts so loud
Further than down
You left me hollow
Are you happy now?
I hope you're happy now

[Post-Chorus:]
I feel, I feel, I feel
I feel, I feel, I feel

We never struggled for a conversation
Till you couldn't find the words to say
Now I'm a comma in your explanation
Of your learning curves and your mistakes
They say that it should be a celebration
But I'm still crying in a cubicle
I wish you felt the way you used to
I wish you'd made me feel beautiful

[Pre-Chorus:]
You're the one that got away and you got away with a lot
They say it's better to have loved even if you lost
But I can tell you it's not
'Cause I feel

[Chorus:]
Hollow
This hurts so loud
Further than down
Oh, you left me hollow
Are you happy now?
I hope you're happy now

[Bridge:]
Oh, we lit up the night
Heart to heart, put the world to rights, and I
I'm here again
Now you're somebody else with somebody else you swore was not your type
I just miss my friend

[Chorus:]
And I feel hollow
Hollow
I just feel hollow
This hurts so loud
Further than down (Oh, further than down)
You left me hollow
Are you happy now?
I hope you're happy now
