lyrics

Built my home on hollow ground
Too proud to grow from my roots
I’ve got a few friends and I wish they were mine
Can’t get close till I buy my time

There’s a closet for the pretty ones
they have no eyes but they’re a hell of a sight
get too close and you’ll find the bridge between you
cross it to find your synthetic light

Built my home on hollow ground
Too proud to grow from my roots
I’ve got a few friends and I wish they were mine
Can’t get close till I buy my time

There’s a man who lives in your favorite watch
he rides the second hand until he slips
he holds on tight but no fail he falls
at 12 and lands on 6

Built my home on hollow ground
Too proud to grow from my roots
I’ve got a few friends and I wish they were mine
Can’t get close till I buy my time

There’s a school for trolls
that teaches them how to make a human cry
tell them that they’re lovely
then say you always lie

Built my home on hollow ground
Too proud to grow from my roots
I’ve got a few friends and I wish they were mine
Can’t get close till I buy my time
No I can't get close till I buy my time
