Empty
Combichrist[OST DmC] Lyrics

The lyrics of "Empty" by Combichrist allude to an individual who feels defeated, hopeless, and alone. The opening line "Say nothing..." implies a sense of suppression or being silenced. The following phrase "Empty promises..." suggests that the individual has been let down or betrayed. The word "Wreckage" is indicative of destruction or damage, possibly symbolizing the emotional turmoil that the individual experiences. The phrase "Unforgiven for all..." implies that the individual feels guilty or responsible for something that they can't undo.

The recurring phrases "KILL. ME. SPARE. ME. KILL. ME. FEAR. ME." convey a sense of desperation and plea for an end to the suffering, or perhaps a desire to be noticed or taken seriously. The lyrics "Swinging the hammer..." and "Seeing too much..." can be interpreted as the individual's attempt to keep going and endure despite their hardships. However, the line "I don't think I'll... Get through..." shows doubt and a lack of hope for the future accompanied by a feeling of numbness that is expressed by the word "Empty".

"Harvest the bad dreams" and "Bury them" suggest a desire to rid oneself of negative feelings and move on from past traumas. Nevertheless, the repetition of "KILL. ME. SPARE. ME. KILL. ME. FEAR. ME" demonstrates that the individual's struggles have left an impactful and lasting mark on them.
