Icon For Hire - Hollow Lyrics






I don't wanna break down but I'm feeling low
Let me sink to the bottom
Air in my lungs keeping me afloat
Inside I'm still hollow

I know I'm not my thoughts but my thoughts don't know that yet
Sometimes I try to sneak up on the voice inside my head
I've tried to meditate cause they tell me it'll help
But the last thing I need is more time alone inside myself
I know I'm not unique - we all got broken brains
Culture recently decided being crazy is okay
And now we all can talk about it on our social feeds
Having a rough day? Hashtag mental health awareness week
I know that's progress, we don't have to hide no more
But it leaves me wondering why we ain't said this stuff before
Like were we always all crazy and we all just kept quiet
Are we on the same page with what we're identifying?
And if crazy's the new normal then it's not that crazy, is it?
Cause the word by definition means it sits outside the system
And how can we tell difference between sick and trying to fit in
And if everybody's crazy, then who's supposed to fix it?

I don't wanna break down but I'm feeling low
Let me sink to the bottom
Air in my lungs keeping me afloat
Inside I'm still hollow
I don't wanna break down so where do I go?
My screams sink to the bottom
Top of my lungs, just an echo
Inside I'm still hollow

No one told me it could get this bad, this fast
Guess we only hear about the struggle after it's passed
Getting easier to open up, share what we've lost
Good to know I'm not alone but if I'm really being honest

I kinda hope there's something wrong with me
I kinda hope this isn't how it's supposed to be, supposed to be
I pray to God it's not normal crying on the floor
I don't wanna do this anymore, though

I don't wanna break down but I'm feeling low
Let me sink to the bottom
Air in my lungs keeping me afloat
Inside I'm still hollow
I don't wanna break down so where do I go?
My screams sink to the bottom
Top of my lungs, just an echo
Inside I'm still hollow

I kinda hope there's something wrong with me
I kinda hope this isn't how it's supposed to be, supposed to be
I pray to God it's not normal crying on the floor
I don't wanna do this anymore, though

I kinda hope there's something wrong with me
I kinda hope this isn't how it's supposed to be, supposed to be
I pray to God it's not normal crying on the floor
I don't wanna do this anymore, though

I don't wanna break down
(But I'm feeling low)
I don't wanna break down
(But I'm feeling low)
I don't wanna break down
(But I'm feeling low)
I don't wanna break down

I don't wanna break down but I'm feeling low
Let me sink to the bottom
Air in my lungs keeping me afloat
Inside we're still hollow
I don't wanna break down so where do I go?
My screams sink to the bottom
Top of my lungs, just an echo
Inside I'm still hollow

I know I'm not my thoughts, my thoughts don't know that yet
Sometimes I try to sneak up on the voice inside my head
I've tried to meditate, they tell me it'll help
But the last thing I need is more time alone

  27. N.... C....

    Hi Freddie

  28. L.... W....

    My closest friend is actually a therapsit and whenever i have a session with him he lets me react and throw around things and alike and he takes it very professionally, I'm extremely thankful for him.
    Ariel, Shawn! Never stop making music ever! See you in swedem 2020!❤💙

  29. D.... D....

    Maravilhosa ♥♥♥

  30. T.... K....

    1:07 the look on Shane's face. He's just like
    'Really Ariel, again? '
    I get he supposed to be the therapist but I just lovr the look on his face 😂

  31. J.... G....

    I love it this song 😍😘 one my favorite music 🤗

  32. K.... R....

    Wow. I haven’t checked in on this band in awhile, since Warped 15 I think, and holy shit. I’m speechless

  33. D.... M....

    You are from Sweden. Play black metal!

  34. L.... D....

    Ok I want a featuring with Ronnie Radke

  35. d.... i....

    I love music that’s actually has meaning not just bs over a good beat, bless in 2020 young legend!!

  36. d.... i....

    I fell in love with that flow, singing off the rocks and bars bars bars

  37. C.... ....

    "If everyone's crazy, who's supposed to fix it?"

  38. M.... M....

    Saw them the first time last night. I Love Them! Addicted by the first song 😍

  39. A.... D....

    give me some HEAVY METAL!

  40. A.... J....

    Icon for Hire feat. Falling in Reverse. That would be the greatest collaboration of all time. 😱

  41. M.... ....

    Can't even describe how much this resonates with me right now. please don't stop....

  42. K.... ....

    Ariel: *destroys therapists room*
    Therapist: *writing notes* noted....

  43. W.... V....

    Please go somewhere in Washington but please not Seattle. It may be a population center but it is a terrible place especially after dark.

  44. S.... L....

    I’ve loved everything they have done since I heard Scripted. There is such a difference in someone who only sings the words and someone who feels them because they’re personal!! Fantastic!!!

  45. N.... C....

    This is awful. I understand they did not become as famous as they should have in their prime.. but this is terrible, they are trying to adjust to a genre that does not suit them

  46. R.... I....

    I just wanted to tell you thank you, Icon For Hire..Since I found you in 2016, you've helped keep me alive, and this song is an eerily accurate description of how I feel on a daily basis..Thank you for all your wisdom, inspiring messages, love, and for helping me survive another day. You honestly mean the world to me, and I hope to meet you one day..And Ariel, just wanted to take a moment to say that I hope you and Shawn are doing alright, and that I love you both, and hope you have an amazing day
    🖤🖤🖤🖤💜💜💜💜
    ~XOXO -Raven

  47. d.... c....

    usually like this band but the rap is garbage it sounds forced best thing about the song is the chorus
    rap music is dying for a resean because its trash

  48. S.... L....

    I wanna feel that tongue stud on my asshole

  49. E.... H....

    Well, I could never figure out how to say it, so I'm glad someone did.

  50. I.... e....

    It’s crazy that these people were my families friends back when I was like 5, 6, or 7

  51. B.... M....

    No hate against this song, but does anyone kinda miss icon for hire from 2011. Or is that just me

  52. B.... D....

    Who here is from The Rock n roll thugs Facebook group? Ello fellow thugs

  53. C.... S....

    Gangsta's paradise haha

  54. U.... L....

  55. p.... ....

  56. H.... K....

    Id listen to you all day everyday. my therapists were a freakshow & only in it for cash. they didn't give a s**** about me #IconArmy saved my Life!

  57. i.... r....

    😊🙌

  58. N.... H....

    I don’t wanna breakdown.
    So ironic :D

  59. A.... H....

    you guys help me get thou my day

  60. A.... T....

    This song speaks so much to me, thank you icon for hire ❤

  61. P.... M....

    Omg I love your music been listening for 10 years still loving it

  62. S.... P....

    So glad I found this band! Amazing

  63. K.... P....

    The song had a bit of an edge in the beginning. It seems frustrated and angry but as it continues and she says she doesn’t want to do this anymore, there’s a bit more desperation. “I hope this isn’t normal and it can be fixed.”
    I think a lot of people (myself included) can identify with this.

  64. J.... C....

    1:36 Tfw that shit really hits hard when she says "But if I'm really being honest I kinda hope there's something wrong with me. I kinda hope this isn't how it's supposed to be, I pray to god it's not normal"

  65. D.... H....

    Psychiatrists understand psycho. Doesnt that make them psycho? Psycho treating psycho? Harley Quinn?

  66. S.... S....

    Yes queen!

  67. /.... A....

    Guess we know what Fetch did after Second Son.

  68. M.... A....

    Epa jaja ;)

  69. A.... B....

    I adore this song!!!

  70. O.... U....

    you hurt the poor pillow :(

  71. W.... ....

    That ending hit me hard

  72. K.... C....

    I've completely loved this band since I discovered them a few years ago, and this song hit me harder than any other has before. It's one of the few things keeping me afloat right now.

  73. �.... �....

    рэп ебаный раньше было лучше

  74. A.... K....

    This song speaks volumes to my soul

  75. S.... ....

    I'm very glad this track came out this year and not in 2001

  76. L.... C....

    Just watched make a move, I love seeing growth! They are still awesome 🥰

    L.... C....

    Hello) Could you please check out my cover of this song? It'd be a big help❤ https://youtu.be/OqtpQBdIw5c

  77. K.... U....

    The things you say about depression, the social media frenzy around it, the battling so hard to keep it together, and failing so often. And the subsequent beating yourself up about it. The repetitive stress injury of the broken mind...these songs have seriously saved my life. Because like you said I kinda hope this isn't normal. But its so...much less isolating to know at least one other person gets it on that level. If you can do this, and keep going, so can i.

  78. S.... t....

    We just went to your concert in House of Blues
    You were amazing ❤❤ thank you for coming to Houston :D
    We had to leave early but I still enjoyed it so much

  79. A.... ....

    That end was so perfect I-

  80. M.... ....

    Kontaktier mich!

  81. A.... P....

    Anyone else listen to Bmike? 😂😂

  82. p.... ....

    This song means a lot. Especially after I spent some time in a mental hospital. Never fight alone.

  83. O.... Y....

    😍😍😍😍

  84. A.... A....

  91. R.... V....
