Savior
Hollow City Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The more I fight, the less I find.
No grace. No sanity.
I feel nothing.
Trapped behind these eyes of mine.
You're high off holding on.
You're not the savior of anything.
No wire's tight enough.
You're not the savior.
You're not the savior of anything.
Confessions.
A thousand lies to make you question.
Sink or try.
Fight or fly.
No grace. No sanity.
I feel nothing.
Trapped behind these eyes of mine.
Damned to hell. It's my design.
Deaf to my own voice inside.
Captive my static mind.
I'm still trapped behind these eyes of mine.
You're high off holding on.
You're not the savior.
You're not the savior of anything.
No wire's tight enough.
You're not the savior.
You're not the savior of anything.
Deaf to my own voice inside.
You're high off holding on.
You're not the savior.
You're high off holding on.
You're not the savior.
You're not the savior of anything.
No wire's tight enough.
You're not the savior.
You're not the savior of anything.
The lyrics of Hollow City’s “Savior” seem to be about feeling trapped and unable to escape from the negative emotions and thoughts that occupy the singer’s mind. The opening lines suggest that the desire for possessions and material things has become an obsession, leaving the singer feeling empty and without grace or sanity. They express the feeling of being trapped behind their own eyes, as if they’re a captive audience to their own negative thoughts.
The chorus of the song seems to be directed at someone who is trying to claim the role of a savior, someone who is trying to save the singer from their pain and negative thoughts. The singer fiercely rejects this idea that anyone can be a savior, saying that “no wires tight enough” can save them from themselves. The bridge of the song speaks to the idea of being deaf to one’s own inner voice, unable to hear any positive words or self-affirmations. It seems that the singer is struggling with depression and feelings of hopelessness, unable to see a way out of their own negative thoughts.
Overall, “Savior” is a powerful and emotional song about feeling trapped in one’s own mind and unable to escape from one’s own negative thoughts. The lyrics are full of imagery and metaphors, painting a vivid picture of the singer’s inner turmoil.
