Hollow Chords

capo: 1st fret

[chorus]

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

[verse]

  Dm
I know i'm not my thoughts
But my thoughts don't know that yet
    Bb
Sometimes i try to sneak up
On the voice inside my head
     C
I've tried to meditate
Cause they tell me it'll help
        Dm
But the last thing i need is more 

time alone inside myself
  Dm
I know i'm not unique
We all got broken brains
        Bb
Culture recently decided being crazy is okay
    C
And now we all can talk about 

it on our social feeds
         Dm
Having a rough day? 

hashtag mental health awareness week

Dm
  i know that's progress, 

we don't have to hide no more
       Bb
But it leaves me wondering why 

we ain't said this stuff before
     C
Like were we always all crazy 

and we all just kept quiet
       Dm
Are we on the same page with 

what we're identifying?
       Dm
And if crazy's the new normal 

then it's not that crazy, is it?
          Bb
Cause the word by definition means 

it sits outside the system
        C
And how can we tell difference 

between sick and trying to fit in
       Dm
And if everybody's crazy, 

then who's supposed to fix it?

[chorus]

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

[verse]

   Dm
No one told me it could 

get this bad, this fast
Bb
Guess we only hear about 

the struggle after it's passed
C
Getting easier to open up, 

share what we've lost
Dm
Good to know i'm not alone 

but if i'm really being honest

Dm
I kinda hope there's something wrong with me
        Bb
I kinda hope this isn't how 

it's supposed to be, supposed to be
C
I pray to god it's not normal crying on the floor
Dm
I don't wanna do this anymore, though

[chorus]

                    Dm
I don't wanna break down but i'm feeling low
       Bb

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