Hollow

Verse 1 Blue light fading on my wall Names don’t mean a thing at all Every trace I used to leave Turns to something I don’t need Hovering over “sign me out” Like it’s just another doubt But my hands are finally still And my chest begins to fill Pre-Chorus I don’t owe the world a sound I don’t need to be around Every voice I tried to keep Was just noise that stole my sleep Chorus I’m hollow now But I’m not weak No weight on me No need to speak I’m hollow now I feel it clear What fell apart Was never here Verse 2 A contract cut, a number gone No “just in case” to hold me on Every line erased with care Like I’m learning how to spare All the versions of myself Built for someone else’s shelf I don’t vanish, I remain Just without the constant strain Pre-Chorus If I leave without a trace It’s not fear, it’s giving space Silence doesn’t mean I’m done It’s where I finally begin Chorus I’m hollow now But I don’t break No mask to wear No part to play I’m hollow now And that’s alright I lost the noise I kept the light Bridge If I disappear tonight It’s not the dark, it’s not the fight I cut the wires, kill the feed Keep only what I really need No goodbye, no final sound Just my feet on solid ground (Instrumental break – minimal, airy) Final Chorus (soft → wide) I’m hollow now Hear how I breathe No crowd around Just space for me I’m hollow now I’m stripped, I’m free What’s left is real What’s left is me
