This is a reupload of the original version of the song "Hollow". When relistening to the original one I found that I heard a loud and obnoxious drone throughout half the song. Which drowned out almost everything within the song. And once I heard it, I couldn't unhear it. Making it impossible to enjoy the song. Thankfully I found a great tutorial on UA-cam for editing the spectrograph of audio files in Audacity. I was able to isolate that awful drone sound and reduce it pretty much entirely. Now this song is much easier to listen to. Sorry for anyone who sat through the drone the first time around. I assure you this is much nicer to listen to this time around.
***I'm going to remove the older one from my videos. No sense in having it there anymore.***
***Also note that this is a different song entirely from the "Hollow (v1.0)" video I have on the channel. They both use the same lyrics, but they are different songs. There were parts about v1.0 that I wasn't a huge fan of so when I made it, I also made this version. Again, same lyrics, different song.***
Below is the original description on the first video, followed by the lyrics, as per usual.
"Been on a roll lately. Felt the urge to write more lyrics after meditating today. The lyrics this time are based around life and how it takes unexpected turns. Specifically focusing on drifting further away from friends who you never thought you'd lose or lose contact with. No one specifically on my mind this time, was kind of a culmination of all the friends I used to have moving on with their lives and the feelings that I sometimes get when I realize how isolated I really am. It was a fun set of lyrics to write. Pretty vague throughout, but I think the message is there just beneath the surface."
Lyrics:
Choking whispers,
and distant past,
Suffocate in sorrow,
on brimstone paths,
Flames burn bright,
and touched the night,
Fractured foundation,
Severing ties,
Shriveled and cracked,
by Love undone,
Wading in shadow,
'neath a pitch black Sun,
Stumbling scenes,
of faded mirth,
A wayward reverie,
swallowed in the dirt,
(In the dirt)
Nowhere is home,
in a dome of ice,
Sequestered in silence,
by the chill of night,
Frosted groves,
surrounding stone,
The walls of a Heart,
buried in the snow,
In Shallows drained beneath the sky,
The false moon reflects the days gone by,
Forever lost in dormant tides,
Waiting patient 'til the Morning Light,
Empty in the world unseen,
Devoid of life and memory,
Hollow, All Alone!
(All Alone)
Longing for the comforting,
A soft and kind serenity,
Hollow, All Alone!
(Hollow All Alone!)
Tossed aside for none to see,
Wish for an end to suffering
Hollow, All Alone!
(Hollow, All Alone!)
A single spec on shattered knees,
The ghost of what became of me,
Hollow, All Alone!
(Hollow, All Alone!)
Ooh!
Out of reach,
and dragged below,
The ties that bind,
stretched and broke,
Echoes inside,
erased the hope,
Withered in the weeds,
And failed to grow,
Vines alike,
adorn the bones,
The Light inside,
retreats and loathes,
Scatter what's left,
between the rows,
The cage that lies,
Hollow all alone!
(Hollow all alone!)
Empty in the world unseen,
Devoid of life and memory,
Hollow, All Alone!
(All Alone)
Longing for the comforting,
A soft and kind serenity,
Hollow, All Alone!
(Hollow All Alone!)
Tossed aside for none to see,
Wish for an end to suffering
Hollow, All Alone!
(Hollow, All Alone!)
A single spec on shattered knees,
The ghost of what became of me,
Hollow, All Alone!
(Hollow, All Alone!)
Ooh!
In Shallows drained beneath the sky,
The false moon reflects the days gone by,
Forever lost in dormant tides,
Waiting patient 'til the Morning Light,
Empty in the world unseen,
Devoid of life and memory,
Hollow, All Alone!
(All Alone)
Longing for the comforting,
A soft and kind serenity,
Hollow, All Alone!
(Hollow All Alone!)
Tossed aside for none to see,
Wish for an end to suffering
Hollow, All Alone!
(Hollow, All Alone!)
A single spec on shattered knees,
The ghost of what became of me,
Hollow, All Alone!
Hollow, All Alone!
Hollow,
All Alone,
