About Hollow

"It’s just the feeling when you start thinking about your ancestors and DNA that the grounds open below you and you can feel your mother and her mother, hand her mother, and her mother, and her mother 30,000 years back. So suddenly you’re this kinda tunnel, or trunk of DNA… All these ghosts come up so it ended up begin a halloween song and quite gothic in a way… It’s like being part of this everlasting necklace when you’re just a bead on a chain and you sort of want to belong and be a part of it and it’s just like a miracle." .

Hollow Lyrics

[01:08.56] Hollow, my ancestors have access
[01:28.23] Hollow, I'm falling down the abyss
[01:49.36] Hollow, looking for some answers
[02:10.12] Generations of mothers sailing in
[02:22.95] Somehow they all were shipfolks
[02:38.05] Hollow, the ground is opening up
[02:48.28] Swallows, me up
[02:59.37] The trunk of DNA
[03:08.56] Trunk of DNA, trunk.
[03:24.07] Now come forth
[03:33.66] All species
[03:40.42] Come forth
[03:42.11] Hollow.
[03:51.15] Like a bead in necklace
[03:57.34] Thread me upon this chain
[04:11.28] I'm part of it
[04:20.35] The everlasting necklace
[04:35.49] Jewels after jewels after jewels after
[04:44.12] Jewels after jewels after jewels
[05:03.38] Breathe out
[05:12.63] I yearn to belong, let me belong, let me belong
[05:41.58]
