Lyrical Analysis of...
Hollow Halo
- **Hollow Halo**
- Verse 1
- nightlight bruises the wall
- your shadow's bigger than you are
- I keep missing every call
- phone slides off the edge of my heart
- you breathe like someone else's sin
- I trace the map of where you been
- cold sheets, warm ghost, repeat
- counting heartbeats, counting defeat
- Pre‑Chorus
- tell me love isn't a debt I owe
- tell me storms won't steal what grows
- Chorus
- hold me like I'm not falling
- hold me like I still belong
- need you like a prayer at midnight
- need you when all my lights are gone
- you wear a hollow halo
- but I worship every scar
- love me like the end is coming
- love me like you know who we are
- Verse 2
- your laughter's cracked like old vinyl
- I keep replaying every smile
- we steal time in empty rooms
- turn the silence into something new
- I write your name on faded hands
- promise lands made out of plans
- but seasons kill the bravest trees
- and promises float down like leaves
- Pre‑Chorus
- say our ghosts won't steal the bed
- say you'll stay when words are said
- Chorus
- hold me like I'm not falling
- hold me like I still belong
- need you like a prayer at midnight
- need you when all my lights are gone
- you wear a hollow halo
- but I worship every scar
- love me like the end is coming
- love me like you know who we are
- Bridge (half‑spoken)
- I don't know how to be whole
- without you breaking holes in me
- I don't know how to breathe slow
- without your shadow keeping me
- (soft)
- so stay—
- even if the sky forgets to hold us, stay
- Final Chorus (quiet, then swell)
- hold me like I'm not falling
- hold me like I still belong
- need you like a prayer at midnight
- need you when all my lights are gone
- you wear a hollow halo
- and I whisper to the dark
- love me like the end is coming
- love me like you know who we are
- Outro
- candles gutter, seasons fold
- I keep your name inside my throat
- hollow halo, light me slow
- stay until the morning knows
