Hollow (feat. ARTBAT & Bonn)

MORTEN's song 'Hollow,' featuring ARTBAT and Bonn, delves into the emotional turmoil of a relationship that has reached an impasse. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a couple stuck in a state of transition, unable to move forward or find clarity. The opening lines, 'We need to make a decision / We're stuck in this transition,' set the stage for a narrative of confusion and stagnation. This sense of being trapped is further emphasized by the inability to breathe and the lack of a clear path out of their predicament.

The recurring theme of 'love lost in translation' and 'fragmented communication' highlights the breakdown in understanding and connection between the partners. These phrases suggest that despite their efforts, they are unable to bridge the gap that has formed between them. The metaphor of 'shadows' and 'hollow' represents the emotional void and darkness that has enveloped their relationship. The repeated assertion, 'No I won't follow / Through these shadows / And there's no rescue / From the hollow,' signifies a refusal to continue down a path that leads to further emotional emptiness.

The song's haunting melody and poignant lyrics resonate with anyone who has experienced the pain of a relationship falling apart. MORTEN, known for his deep and emotive electronic music, collaborates with ARTBAT and Bonn to create a track that is both sonically captivating and emotionally profound. 'Hollow' serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of communication and the devastating effects of its breakdown. It captures the essence of feeling lost and the difficult decision to walk away from something that no longer brings joy or fulfillment.
