He's just a kind of man
You hear about
Who leaves his family for
An easy out
He never saw the signs
They never said a word
He couldn't take another day
Carry me to the shoreline
Bury me in the sand
Walk me across the water
And maybe you'll understand
Once the stone
You're crawling under
Is lifted
Off your shoulders
Once the the cloud that's raining
Once you head disappears
The noise that you'll hear
Is the crashing down of hollow years
She's not the kind of girl
You hear about
She'll never want another
She'll never be without
She'll give you all the signs
She'll tell you everything
Then turn around and walk away
Carry me to the shoreline
Bury me in the sand
Walk me across the water
And maybe you'll understand
Once the stone
You're crawling under
Is lifted off your shoulders
Once the cloud that's raining
Over you head disappears
The noise that you'll hear
Is the crashing down of hollow years
Carry me to the shoreline
Bury me in the sand
Walk me across the water
And maybe you'll understand
Once the stone
You're crawling under
Is lifted off your shoulders
Once the cloud that's raining
Over you head disappears
The noise that you'll hear
Is the crashing down of hollow years.

What is the meaning behind Hollow Years lyrics?
When we focus on what the lyrics are trying to say, Dream Theater's 'Hollow Years' is a saga of tormented souls who are nothing else but prisoners of their situations, and at the same time, they are not even able to share their true inner self and their emotions. The image of being taken to the beach by waves and walking on water is a symbol of understanding and relief from the burdens that are sought. The 'hollow years' crashing down refers to the letting go and the falling down of the full weight of past struggles and emotional turmoil, which thus means a new beginning and clarity. The lyrics of hollow years predominantly portray despair, heartbreak, angst, reflection, and nostalgia. However, the song also points to the opposing concepts of escape and freedom, burden and relief, unrequited love, and loss. The lyrics present themes of emotional struggle and love that might need parental guidance but are free from any explicit language, violence, or adult content that would otherwise call for a higher rating. ✔️
