[Verse 1: Chris Brown]
Baby, I'll admit, I made a mistake
Don't know what I was thinking, what I had was so great
Charged it to my mind, but not to my heart
I know it ain't fair, sometimes I want it all
Go 'head and cuss me out, girl, I understand
I'ma stay right here and take it like a man
I really need you back, babe, what I gotta do?
Let me be honest and straight up tell the truth

[Pre-Chorus: Chris Brown]
I haven't been the same since I left you
I can't enjoy myself, even if I tried to
I'm not happy, it ain't a laughin' matter
And you don't understand

[Chorus: Chris Brown, Chris Brown & Andre Merritt]
My heart is hollow
I didn't know I'd end up like this
I said I didn't want it, now I miss you
My heart is hollow
And I don't care if the neighbors hear me loud
Baby, I'll scream it out
Don't know what I was thinkin' 'bout
Hollow
I thought I wanted to spread my wings
But I'm empty tryna do my thing out in these streets
I wanna fly back, can I come back home?
Without you, love is hollow
[Post-Chorus: Chris Brown]
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Girl

[Verse 2: Chris Brown]
I will never be the same no more
Promise I can do you better, sincerely yours
And them times I didn't try
And even when I told them lies, you stayed wonderful, girl
Can I least just get the chance to show you I
That I'm not a little boy? But I'll make you cry
We're enemies now, all we need is time
And we can get back to the way things were

[Pre-Chorus: Chris Brown]
I haven't been the same since I left you
I can't enjoy myself, even if I tried to
I'm not happy (Happy), it ain't a laughin' matter
And you don't understand

[Chorus: Chris Brown, Chris Brown & Andre Merritt]
My heart is hollow
I didn't know I'd end up like this
I said I didn't want it, now I miss you
My heart is hollow
And I don't care if the neighbors hear me loud
Baby, I'll scream it out
Don't know what I was thinkin' 'bout
Hollow
I thought I wanted to spread my wings
But I'm empty tryna do my thing out in these streets
I wanna fly back, can I come back home?
Without you, love is hollow
[Bridge: Chris Brown]
Only so much I can take
This love is breakin' down
Come rescue me
I need your arms to gently wrap around
Say you need me
And don't let go, woah
And just to put it simply
Girl, my heart is empty (Hollow)

[Chorus: Chris Brown, Chris Brown & Andre Merritt]
My heart is hollow
I didn't know I'd end up like this
I said I didn't want it, now I miss you
My heart is hollow
And I don't care if the neighbors hear me loud (I don't care)
Baby, I'll scream it out (Scream it out)
Don't know what I was thinkin' 'bout (Oh)
Hollow
I thought I wanted to spread my wings (Yeah)
But I'm empty tryna do my thing out in these streets (Oh, I'm so empty)
I wanna fly back, can I come back home?
Without you, love is hollow

[Post-Chorus: Chris Brown]
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Girl
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Girl
