I Am Hollow

Tell me you see me as I see myself
They seem to perceive me as something else
And I don't like the acting
And I don't like the quotes
The preconceived notion
The cutting of throats
So tell me I'm wrong
And I'll just let it be
But still I'll be fighting for identity
Cause you know
I am hollow

I saw a man die and become a myth
And two days I cried but his life the gift
And never I met him
And never I will
But he left his mark
And I'm standing still
So if i die now
And never succeed
Will I have existed in your memory?
Cause you know
I am hollow
