“Hollow” was written about a relationship breakup, where my partner at the time decided to abruptly end it. I was completely shocked and blindsided, even though it was amicable parting of ways. Was feeling stunned and rocked at the time. Thinking back on those feelings and the situation, I decided to write a song about it and how I felt at the time. I felt completely lost and hollow at the time. It was recorded on the Gold Coast with the same team involved in all my releases, Dylan Smith (Producer/Mix Engineer), Blair Hamilton (Drums), Lawson Hamilton (Bass) and Paul Blakey – 12th & Vine Post (Mastering). It was recorded with two other singles, which will be released on February 10 and April 21 2023 respectively.
Lyrics
Pacing all around my bedroom
Hoping that you don't see me cry
You caught me at the worst time
You always do, you know its true
(That I'm just not sinking in)
Tell me what's the point of you leaving?
And you oughta know I'm not sleeping at all tonight
I guess, that you have your reasons
And that's fair, but darling I mean it
Darling I mean it
Darling I mean it
Darling I mean it
I've overstayed my welcome
I can feel all the tension rise
And I was thinking
Maybe tonight we can set our sails in the night
(I'm drowning)
Tell me what's the point of you leaving?
And you oughta know I'm not sleeping at all tonight
I guess, that you have your reasons
And that's fair, but darling I mean it
Tell me what you're meaning, if it all sounds fair
Tell me what you're meaning, if it all sounds fair
Tell me what you're meaning, if it all sounds fair
Tell me what you're meaning, if it all sounds fair
Tell me what's the point of you leaving? (leaving)
And you oughta know I'm not sleeping at all tonight
I guess, that you have your reasons
And that's fair, but darling I mean it
Darling I mean it
Darling I mean it
