[Verse 1 (soft, almost whispered]
I walk through rooms… that gleam with gold
Touch the things… that stories told
But none of it… can reach or see
The hollow space… inside of me
[Pre-Chorus 1 - breathy, fragile, tension building]
The world applauds… I wear a mask
A fleeting shadow… no one asks
I hold it all… yet nothing’s free
Just silent echoes… inside of me
[Chorus 1 - layered, haunting, minimal instrumentation]
You can have it all…
And still feel nothing at all
Diamonds, lights… endless halls
But inside… you’re hollow, nothing at all
Yeah… you can have it all
And still feel nothing at all
[Verse 2 - slightly darker, more distant vocal]
I hear the laughter… I see the lights
Moments burn… but none ignite
The pulse of life… feels cold, extreme
A frozen heart… a distant dream
[Pre-Chorus 2 - vocal crack, whispery echo effect]
The mirrors lie… I don’t exist
A drifting soul… a fleeting mist
I hold it all… yet nothing’s free
Just quiet storms… inside of me
[Chorus 2 - add subtle layered harmonies, haunting]
You can have it all…
And still feel nothing at all
Diamonds, lights… endless halls
But inside… you’re hollow, nothing at all
Yeah… you can have it all
And still feel nothing at all
[Bridge (dark, sparse, maybe just piano & whispering]
Maybe it’s the void…
That’s keeping me whole
A secret ache… I can’t console
Where even light… can’t hope to be
A silent world… inside of me
[Final Chorus / Outro (fragile, layered whisper + soft echo, haunting]
You can have it all…
And still feel nothing at all
(nothing at all…)
You can have it all…
Yeah… you can have it all
Diamonds, lights… endless halls
But inside… you’re hollow, nothing at all
(nothing at all…)
Inside… you’re hollow, nothing at all
Yeah… you can have it all
And still feel like… nothing at all
[Fade out on sparse, haunting piano, soft synth drones, high notes lingering like a ghostly sigh in empty space]
