Harrowing Being Hollow by MC Pooja Lyrics
[Verse 1]
What is it of her that's left?
There's a lot actually, you just need to check
You just need to think, not making brash bets
You just need to think, get inside your head
But for her, there may be nothing there
Not because she’s intellectually impaired
Just because she’s had so much taken
Nothing at this point can save her, she’s breaking
She’s breaking down, not saving
The things she has left, complacent
The last year, she’s almost made it
She can stock up the savings
That is if she makеs it
My head can’t wrap around the future likе a bracelet
Can’t wrap around it like a waistband
Not even her home feels like her land
So what do we do?
There’s nothing we can do to make her pull through
At this point, sing to the tune
We’re taking the London tube
To free up the mind and space
It’s rare, her smile on her face
Seen it like a couple times
What is the use here of me lying?
Floating in her mind
Vicious times
Get me out of here
I can see why she is scared
To even frown upon
What is deemed too strong
She doesn’t see herself as strong
I kinda think she’s wrong
That’s just me though
And hey, to the other side, you may roll
I mean, each to their own
But she’s still strong, I suppose
That’s just my view, yeah
I understand you may be impaired
Once again, to each their own
But she’s still strong, saying otherwise is not fair
Slipping on an ice rink
This is not an amusement risk
[Instrumental bridge]
[Verse 2]
Starting over would be a challenge
How would she ever manage?
This is the thing I need to make clear:
Her mind’s at the bottom, it ain’t here
It is clear
I need to make sure there aren’t fears
‘Cause, if there are fears, leave them here
Leave them to me, I don’t mind, they are mere (to me)
Get back on track, on the road
She just had to pay that life toll
But is she really at fault
When she has nobody to call
To help or to get her fixed?
‘Cause she needs somebody quick
Someone to love (somebody to kiss)
She needs someone that has bliss
It seems as if there’s no quick fix
She doesn’t know what solution is
Stuck in the mud, way too thick
Now she’s waiting for that one day
Where everything turns out okay
Wishing her the best along the way
Hopefully she doesn’t leave permanent pain
What is it of her that's left?
There's a lot actually, you just need to check
You just need to think, not making brash bets
You just need to think, get inside your head
But for her, there may be nothing there

Nothing at this point can save her, she’s breaking
She’s breaking down, not saving
