Hollow Heart
Echoes of Betrayal: Unveiling the Soul's Desolation in 'Hollow Heart'
Lyrics
Leave, leave me
Expressing a plea or command to depart
I am the one who will suffer through this pain
Claiming the speaker will endure pain
Lie, liar
Accusing someone of deception
That's all you're good for
Assigning a limited value or purpose to the person
Let's see you just go for it and stab me in the back again
Challenging the person to betray the speaker again
Why bother
Questioning the point or significance
Why won't you leave
Expressing a desire for the person to leave
You know you no longer deserve me
Asserting that the person is no longer deserving
Empty
Describing a lack of substance or fulfillment
That's what your soul is
Characterizing the person's soul as empty
Go ahead and play pretend you know that you are soulless
Encouraging the person to acknowledge their soullessness
You great deceiver
Labeling the person as a great deceiver
Go ahead and play pretend you know that you are soulless
Reiterating the idea that the person is soulless
Soulless
Emphasizing the lack of a soul
Soulless
Repeating the assertion of soullessness
I hope that you find peace
Expressing a wish for the person to find peace
These days seem like years
Describing the passing of time as seemingly prolonged
We can't keep living this lie
Rejecting the continuation of a falsehood
There's nothing left in this hollow heart that still remains in this chest
Declaring an absence of emotions in the speaker's heart
We're living our worst fears
Acknowledging the experience of the worst fears
Every day is just a fight to survive
Portraying life as a daily struggle for survival
There's nothing left in this hollow heart that you just left for dead
Stating the emptiness in the heart left by the person
Left for dead
Repeating the idea of being left for dead
Breathing in water
Metaphorically describing a suffocating situation
As you hold my head under the surface
Depicting a moment of betrayal and drowning
Left for dead
Reiterating the feeling of being abandoned and lifeless
One last breath
Referring to a final breath in a dire situation
You left me for dead
Claiming abandonment and near death
Bitch
Using a derogatory term to address the person
You left me for dead
Reiterating the abandonment and near-death experience
You fucking bitch
Intensifying the negative address to the person
These days seem like years
Repeating the description of time as extended and false living
We can't keep living this lie
Rejecting the continuation of a deceptive existence
There's nothing left in this hollow heart that still remains in this chest
Emphasizing the absence of feelings in the heart
We're living our worst fears
Acknowledging the experience of worst fears persisting
Every day is just a fight to survive
Portraying life as an ongoing battle for survival
There's nothing left in this hollow heart that you just left for dead
Stating the emptiness in the heart caused by the person
Soulless
Reiterating the description of the person as soulless
You're soulless
Repeating the assertion of the person's soullessness
You're soulless
Reiterating the assertion of the person's soullessness
You're soulless
