lyrics

hallelujah hollow me out
hallelujah hollow me out

—and I will relate with no intention to conquer or equate, yeah.
—ground my mind to slate so you can press your palms flat on me.

hallelujah hollow me out
hallelujah hollow me out

you are faceless, you are nameless, your true power is alien!
I am faceless, I am nameless, my true power is alien!
("I climbed out of the wailing ocean's mouth, and its teeth fell out when it saw the sun's hot ground")

now I see you as big as a smokestack.

"sew up my throat,
leave nothing inside,
lobotomize me,
and make me your bride" ,

...but I asked that you leave just one grain of hope floating around in me so that I could be complacent and stupid and "free", but I was dumb and silly, my findings incomplete, because I failed to recognize that...

sunny-golden hope and antagonizing pride arise together and once again I’m alive!

hallelujah hollow me out
hsiang-sheng teach me to sing!
hallelujah hollow me out
hsiang-sheng teach me to sing!
