Hollow Remains

(Intro (atmospheric)

(Verse 1)
The walls are closing in on me
Every step I take is history
Lost in the shadows I can’t escape
Fighting my reflection, I can’t relate

Every memory is a faded flame
Every promise a forgotten name
I scream into the night alone
But no one hears, I’m on my own

(Pre-Chorus (tight, emotional build)
I try to hold on
But it slips through my hands
Every day feels wrong
I’m breaking where I stand

(Chorus (catchy, melodic, anthemic)
I’m just hollow remains
Walking through the ashes of my pain
I keep calling your name
But it’s just echoes in the rain

I’m just hollow remains
Trying to rise but pulled by chains
All I’ve learned, all I’ve gained
Feels like nothing but faded remains


(Verse 2)
Mirror cracks, I see my fear
Every scar a story no one hears
Drowning in mistakes I made
Every hope starts to fade

They tell me, “you’ll be fine someday”
But words like that just slip away
The weight I carry won’t let me breathe
And every step just makes me grieve

(Pre-Chorus)
I try to hold on
But it slips through my hands
Every day feels wrong
I’m breaking where I stand

(Chorus)
I’m just hollow remains
Walking through the ashes of my pain
I keep calling your name
But it’s just echoes in the rain

I’m just hollow remains
Trying to rise but pulled by chains
All I’ve learned, all I’ve gained
Feels like nothing but faded remains

(Bridge (melodic, emotional build)
I’m falling deeper, can’t escape the night
Every shadow whispers, telling me I’m right
But I’ll keep reaching through the haze
Hoping for light in this endless maze

(Breakdown (half-time, heavy, crowd chant)
HOLLOW REMAINS
HOLLOW REMAINS
HOLLOW REMAINS

No escape, no end in sight
Pull me under, drag me into the fight

HOLLOW REMAINS
HOLLOW REMAINS
HOLLOW REMAINS

(Final Chorus (biggest, layered vocals)
I’m just hollow remains
Walking through the ashes of my pain
I keep calling your name
But it’s just echoes in the rain

I’m just hollow remains
Trying to rise but pulled by chains
All I’ve learned, all I’ve gained
Feels like nothing but faded remains
