Hollow Places 2 (버전 2)

Verse

You left a coat on the back of the chair

The kind that still smells like your hair

I walked around it for three days straight

Telling myself you'd come back through the gate

Your friends came by to check if I was alright

They said, 'This isn't forever, keep shining light

But when I finally took it off my shoulders

I found a note folded up inside the pockets

It said: You deserve better than a hollow place

Better than a ghost that's stuck in this space

Pre-Chorus

Are you really gone or just pretending?

Am I brave enough to let it go again?

Chorus

Oh, these hollow places they whisper your name

They hold me close like a shadow, they drive me insane

But I'm learning to shake them loose one by one

I don't need your ghost if I've found someone new now

Someone who doesn't haunt me when the sun goes down

Verse

Your old phone still sits on the kitchen counter

Every time it rings my heart takes a moment

To wonder: maybe this is the start of something new

But then the screen lights up with your face, too

I think about all those hours we spent on hold

Talking 'bout nothing, our voices soft as gold

And now I realize that every single call

Was just you practicing leaving before you left at all

Pre-Chorus

Are you really gone or just pretending?

Am I brave enough to let it go again?

Chorus

Oh, these hollow places they whisper your name

They hold me close like a shadow, they drive me insane

But I'm learning to shake them loose one by one

I don't need your ghost if I've found someone new now

Someone who doesn't haunt me when the sun goes down

Bridge

Maybe this is how I heal

Not by erasing but by feeling

That maybe losing wasn't a lie

But just the door that opened me up to fly

Chorus

Oh, these hollow places they whisper your name

They hold me close like a shadow, they drive me insane

But I'm learning to shake them loose one by one

I don't need your ghost if I've found someone new now

Someone who doesn't haunt me when the sun goes down

Outro

The note said I deserve better than this place

And for once it feels like I might actually believe it
