Lying here in wait on my deathbed,
Open air still fills my lungs,
Not proud of everything I've done, but at least you know I did it well.

Feels like I'm walking on a tightrope,
Can't step on either side,
I'm a hollow man, but you still know who I am.

I'm not going down until I get there,
Break my back 'cause this is all I know,
Still living life out on the edge,
Still moving on the narrow path.

Feels like I'm walking on a tightrope,
Can't step on either side,
I'm a hollow man, but you still know who I am.

For every dream I threw away on a dirt road,
I've been dying way too long,
I looked fate in the eye, kissed her goodbye,
And I keep moving on,
This mission ride is where I found my life,
Say what you will, make no mistake,
It's time we put up a fight,
A hollow man, but you still know who I am.

Feels like I'm walking on a tightrope,
Can't step on either side,
I'm a hollow man, but you still know who I am.
