Hollow Ones (w David Gomez)


Album: Beauty of All Things
Category: Contemporary, Singer/songwriter, Avant Garde



This song has been applauded!
Description: A rocker that shouts about core values.

In their hollow shell of being
they have lost the art of seeing
gift of life that simply is.

In the absence of the Spirit
they are not disposed to hear it:
Word of God that says "just be".

Grows the lust of humankind.
Stuff to fill our empty minds.
It's the quest of Hollow Ones.

Hollow! Hollow be thy name
when you're known by all your rivals.
Hollow! Hollow be thy fame
when you've sold a million platters.
Hollow! Hollow be thy game
when you've climbed the highest ladder.
Hollow! Hollow be thy claim
to possessions that don't matter.

In their hollow shell of being
they have lost the art of seeing
gift of life that simply is.
In the absence of the Spirit
they are not disposed to hear it:
Word of God that says "just be".
