Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

hollows eve is here now i dont know where i am now im dipping pass the corners of my head i know ill end up dead the world is in your eyes and my face is in disguiseand I know I shoulda never ever gone out tonight

I'm trying to get my head around the vomit all across the ground
the anguish and the fear the grim augury
I'm trying to wrap my head around the sky is telling me I'm found
the horror and loathing
is making me feel bliss
black and orange thoughts
I'm almost out of thoughts
and I'm falling through your gaze
my throat is torn from all the blaze
and I don't have a clue
cuz I'm sniffing on that good glue
I knew it was never ever gonna be about you

I'm trying to get my head around the vomit all across the ground
the anguish and the fear the grim augury
I'm trying to wrap my head around the sky is telling me I'm found




the horror and loathing
is making me feel bliss

The song "Hollow" by Franky Flowers opens up with the singer feeling lost and uncertain. He mentions that it is Halloween night, and he doesn't know where he is headed. He is in a state of delirium and is dipping through the corners of his head, indicating a state of confusion. He realizes that his actions will lead him to his doom, and the world is in someone else's eyes, while his own face is in disguise. He laments that he should not have gone out tonight.


As the song progresses, Franky tries to come to terms with the emotions he is feeling. He speaks about the vomit all around him, indicating that he is in a dark place, both externally and internally. The horror and loathing emotions he experiences seem to provide him with some kind of twisted happiness or peace, which he calls "bliss." He is almost out of thoughts and is falling into someone's gaze. He is consumed by the sniffing of good glue and is aware that it was never about the person or people that he came across.


Overall, "Hollow" seems to imply a state of emptiness and confusion that the singer experiences. He is grappling with a lot of emotions and is unable to comprehend or make sense of them. The lyrics are cryptic and open to interpretation, but the general bleakness and sense of despair can be felt throughout the song.
