Hollow Halo
• Written by LilWRLDPain
**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
