Hollow Man's Lament

Lyrics

I remember once, you were flesh and bone,
Now you’re a phantom, cold as stone.
A hollow shell with dead, glass eyes,
Watching me with a vacant guise.

It hurts to speak, tears at my throat,
Recalling the life you used to float.
Now you’re a corpse that walks in place,
A soulless mask, an empty face.

What happened to you? I want to scream,
You’re twisted now, a nightmare scene.
A puppet of shadows, a marionette’s grace,
Bound in silence, erased in space.

Your words cut like rust, a toxic sting,
They crawl like spiders under my skin.
You promise to end it, laugh in the night,
But you’re already gone—an undead blight.

It’s agony to watch, to try and care,
But you’re hollow inside, no soul to share.
Once warm and real, now ice and dust,
A creature of rot, a husk of disgust.

I’m trapped in your darkness, bound to your curse,
Each breath I take just makes it worse.
A nightmare in flesh, a horror alive,
Clinging to life, barely contrived.

I can’t look at you, can’t stand the sight,
You’ve become something cold, feeding on fright.
I loved you once, but you’re a disease,
An empty horror, dead memories.

So haunt me, linger, scratch at my mind,
I’ll scream through the pain, leave you behind.
You’re a hollow man, a shadow, a stain—
A nightmare I won’t relive again.
