Analysis of Hollow Grace



Laying down, my heart's still in motion,
In pain because of your lack of devotion,
But there was a time the shine was in me,
And by your side is where I wanted to be,
Because it's you my heart does desire,
But it's other men that you require,
Now what am I supposed to even do,
In this life that doesn't have you,
CUZ I was all about till death do us part,
You wanted nothing to do with my heart.
