Hollowed

He said he was gone get an egg McMuffin
It's 11:30, but I sho ain't gone say nuffin
If he still wants one when he gets there
He'll find the cubord is bare
Just like my heart
I told the crew I had to depart
They wouldn't, couldn't understand why
If I broke down and started to cry
So I left in a hurry with no where to go
I know I had to get away though
From him, cause he'd empited me out
My heart, my soul, and my tear ducts no dought
Then when there was nothing left to give
He just let me go but how can I live
As a hollowed out shell of my former being
If only I knew just what he was seeing
I could slap him upside the head wit my hand
And tell him why in tearms he can understand
Maybe that would fill some of this space
I don't know what to do with a hollowed out place
Well, maybe I'll get a Egg McMuffin too
But it's already 11:30 so that won't do
Guess I'll just go home and sleep
And pray the Lord my soul to keep
