Verse 1:
C
Hollow one
     G
With inverted tongue
Dm                            Am
From whence does fulfillment come?
C
When I expel
          G
From this mortal shell
Dm                     Am
Will I die for living numb?

Chorus 1:
C      Em
Am I vital
G              Dm
If my heart is idle?
   Am
Am I doomed?
C    Em
Am I vital
G              Dm
If my heart is idle?
   Am
Am I doomed?

Verse 2:
C            G
 I feel you
                 Dm
But nobody else
                         Am
Though you're someone I can't see
C             G
Yet you say nothing
             Dm
Of the stoic suffering
                    Am
That stirs lukewarm in me
C               G
 If lovelessness is godlessness
Dm                       Am
Will you cast me to the wayside?
C                    G                    Dm
 Well, I feel the peeling of half-painted ceilings
           Am
Reveal the covering of a blank sky

Chorus 2:
C    Em
Am I vital
G              Dm
If my heart is idle?
   Am
Am I doomed?
C      Em
Cradle me
G        Dm
So I can see
   Am
If I'm doomed

Chorus 2:
C    Em
Am I vital
G              Dm
If my heart is idle?
   Am
Am I doomed?

Cradle me
G        Dm
So I can see
   Am
If I'm doomed

Outro:
