about

With gut-wrenchingly raw lyrics and clear, emotive vocals, "Hollow" deals with the disturbing, callous creature that is a person without a heart.

lyrics

I can’t blame you, no, you’re much too clever
Set it up so perfectly so that I could never
Blame you for us spending time together
Your intricately woven lies are innocuous from the outside
But inside you are hollow, like the eye of a storm
With a hole like a tunnel where your heart should have gone
And it’s all gone wrong
I can’t blame you; technically you said it
That you don’t want me and you don’t regret it
And I can’t claim that you’ve done me any harm
Since you said you didn’t love me when I was lying in your arms
Inside you are hollow, like the eye of a storm
With a hole like a tunnel where your heart should have gone
It’s all gone wrong
And therein dies my hope, crippled and broken on a hangman’s rope
And God as my witness stood by and let me do this
I don’t understand it at all, no I don’t.
I can’t blame you, no, there are ties to sever
And my heart dies a little more every time you tell me ‘never’
There are too many memories to burn this time
And inside you are hollow, like the eye of a storm
With a hole like a tunnel where your heart should have gone
And inside you are hollow, like the eye of a storm
With a hole like a tunnel where your heart should have gone
And my heart is hollow where your love should have gone, but it’s just gone
