Hollow Lyrics

Artist: Pantera
Album: Vulgar Display Of Power

What's left inside him?
Don't he remember us?
Can't he believe me?
We seemed like bothers
Talked for hours last month
About what we wanna be
I sit now with his hand in mine
But I know he can't feel...

No one knows
What's done is done
It's as if he were dead

I'm close with his mother
And she cries endlessly
Lord how we miss him
At least what's remembered
It's so important to make best friends in life
But it's hard when my friend sits with blank expressions

No one knows
What's done is done
It's as if he were dead

He as hollow as I alone now
He as hollow as I alone
A shell of my friend
Just flesh and bone
There's no soul
He sees no love
I shake my fists at skies above
Mad at God

He as hollow as I converse
I wish he'd waken from this curse
Hear my words before it's through
I want to come in after you
My best friend

He as hollow as I alone

great song, perfect lyrics

let's smoke pot

Fuck...this song is so great...just makes you miss Dime every lyric of the song...
by Crawen on 6/7/2008 9:22am
This song is like it's been written for Dimebag... The only thing is that it was written 12 years before he died... You know when I heard this song at the first time, all I knew about Dimebag, that he was the guitarrist of Pantera, and that he was shot down... So then I thought this song was written for him...

You left us hollow... Rest in peace, Dime, brother! We'll miss you - until we meet again...
by Mike Hunt on 6/14/2008 11:38am
I think this song was meant for everyone because everyone has a friend whos just like the song describes.... hollow and for anyone who sings this song with that friend in mind theres no way you can get through the last 4 phrases without drawn up a tear and for dime R.I.P and u will be rejoined with us again one day
by nihan on 6/21/2008 8:58am

by Shagrath on 6/23/2008 8:23am

accually guys this song was written for Billy(Mutt)Gibson, close friend to Phil that died in a car accident after getting wasted at a show they did in a bar in dallas texas.

by Catherine J on 7/28/2008 6:28pm

I lost my best friend..Navin we were like brothers, i don't think i will ever meet anyone like him again this song i can't tell how perfect to feel about your friend who is no more in this world..Simply Awesome.. Vulgar Display of Music..:)
by Muncher on 10/15/2008 4:53pm
wtf, i dont see any comparison with this song and dimebag. dimebag got shot and killed by a deranged fan. this song is so obviously about an accident that has left his friend in some kind of veggy state...hollow, a shell of flesh and bone, wake from this curse, etc etc....come on guys seriously you cant connect dots that arent there. its a great song though!
by Ilaria on 10/20/2008 3:57am
This song is beautyful.I don't speak english very well(beacuse i'm italian),but the words of this song are..one word: wow!!!This song tell about best friend..about what means to lost a best friend..fortunately I never lost a friend..but..i know what means to lost him...I'm sorry for my english... :( I don't know how describe what i feel when I listen this song....

OXXX YEEE
by fck yeah! on 11/7/2008 8:12pm
watched my best mate get the plug pulled on him. when i heard this the first time after he died it won!!!!
by hey munched!!! on 11/8/2008 1:11am
first off, if someone wants to think of dime on this song, who the fuk is to say u can't, munch, whoever the fuk u r, go eat shit, dimebag would say the same, metal forever!!!!
by Ha on 11/17/2008 5:57pm
I heard that song was written for Cliff Burton, but never minde. Perfect lyrics for both of them or anybody else who died and stood the person close!
by Sweet Agony on 1/14/2009 3:58pm
best friend of mine, both of us hardcore pantera fans, was in a terrible car wreck, brain damaged unable to move. this song hit me pretty hard the other day. Right now he's got a very small chance of making it.

So pour a shot, pack a bowl
Here's to our brothers who are not as fortunate as us.

R.I.P. - DIME
PULL THROUGH - ARCHIE BASS

dimebag!!!<3
by Gerardo on 2/6/2009 11:52pm
I'm sure we all miss Darrell but the song doesn't fit to his death, it speaks of someone in a comatose state and of billy gibson, and darrell wasn't dead at that point!
by trinity on 3/25/2009 8:45pm
these lyrics just made me cry, its like it was written for my best friend.
by LIBEY on 4/10/2009 2:01pm
Absolute Perfection.
by gabriel_thirty2@yahoo.com on 4/18/2009 10:37pm
I always remember my cousin everytime i hear this song. My best friend.
by DUDE on 5/12/2009 11:33pm
you know who played guitar on this song... it was DIMEBAG to all those people who think it's about him... Dime was killed when preforming with DAMAGEPLAN! NOT PANTERA!
by JJ on 5/15/2009 1:56pm
i love this song... like when it was written the same moment it was dedicated to Dimebag..... still miss Dimebag and Pantera.... the best band in the history :(
by Seth on 6/5/2009 8:24am
This song is just beautiful... Although this song makes me think of good ol' Dime, I know it's not for him... Especially with Phil singing it... Not that I hate Phil Anselmo, but I do feel a great hostility towards him after what he said about Dimebag shortly before he died...
R.I.P, God Of Guitar... Master Of Metal....Dimebag.
by Bushwick94 on 6/19/2009 1:49pm
Bitchin song altogether, but no...its not about Dimebag. In fact Dimebag is the one playing the guitar in "Hollow" Phil and Dimebag shared a mutual friend that remained in a coma.....thats obvious by the lyrics. It still somehow grabs you and makes you think of the ones you lost.
by mike rotch on 6/24/2009 2:34pm
makes me sad when i hear this song...

some sick guitar though

this and floods defo my fav pantera songs
by OSWALD on 7/2/2009 11:27pm
That's right it's so important to make best friend in life...
by Tia on 7/19/2009 4:26pm
this reminds me of my best friend, who was a great guitar player, until he got into drugs. hardcore drugs, meth, crack, etc. i have known him my whole life and one day i went to his house and he didn't even remember me. he sat there, looking at me, with nothing on his face, i almost cried. hes was and still my best friend, mentor, guitar buddy. i don't care what his on.
by Shade on 7/23/2009 4:05pm
Yeah, well, I lost a cousing a year and a half ago, he was my first best friend in life, he was just 17... R.I.P. Skizo and Dime
by hugh_e_lud on 8/22/2009 9:16pm
PANTERA ARE THE GREATEST
R.I.P. DIMEBAG

one of the best songs ever!
by Hyria on 1/16/2010 4:51pm
Erkki diggaa!
by SeAn on 3/26/2010 10:04pm
I just listened to this song for the first time in a long time. Phil is actually singing in this song. Not just growling. Seems out of place (except for the ending) on an album with F*&king Hostile & Mouth For War!
PANTERA FOREVER!
RIP DIME!
by MetapoliC on 3/27/2010 2:57pm
PANTERA FORVEVER

THIS SONG IS REALLY SOMETHING SPECIAL GUYS!

Thank you PanterA for beeing in metal scene!
by goatse on 3/27/2010 10:48pm
Tis funny that I remember this song was actually played by one Diamond Darrell, not Dimebag Darrell. Huh. I never actually got around to calling him Dimebag.

Anyway, the song is not about him, no matter what you want to call him.
by PANTERA FOREVER on 7/1/2010 5:21am
I wish I could have seen them in a concert :(
by goatlover on 10/9/2010 10:12pm
This song always seems to put tears in my eyes.
by Ben McLan on 1/13/2011 4:23pm
This song makes me cry right now because this could have been me in 2002 when i had my car accident and my best friend was torn up over it and worried id be gone forever and then i came to a week later.
by marissa on 4/9/2011 3:40am
I love this song. my boyfriend died a year & a half ago from an infection from shooting heroin & an overdose. he was in a coma, I'm still close with his mother & this song sums my feelings up perfectly. I know every time I wear his pantera shirt & put this on he smiles down on me
by sherry on 5/30/2011 10:38am
really miss u dimebag !there will never be a guitarist like u .we lost a lord of mettal r.i.p
by djokavi on 6/30/2011 12:47pm
Awesome song!
by jjasta'sgirl88 on 8/4/2011 4:47pm
oh dime i had fallen in love with you and pantera when i first heard metal when i was a freshman in'02 i miss you soo much and it kills me everyday that you will never get to play your guitar for all of your loyal fans, no matter what you are still loved and missed, i love and miss you dime, R.I.P. dimebag '04
by ride for dime on 4/8/2012 4:05am
i recently lost my great uncle, i miss him so much and i think this song, i saw the doctors and nurses pull the plug on him, it was the worst thing ive ever seen, this song reminds me of him so much, R.I.P dime and R.I.P uncle Sid, I love you
by RIP Pantera on 4/29/2012 11:43pm
Phil anselmo used to be good with pantera. Now he sucks cock. He goes down, right?
by RedDevil504 on 7/7/2012 2:06am
Emo metal heads lol you're all a bunch of posers lol. Oh I had a friend just like this boohoohoo. Oh this song is perfect for Dimebag yeah cuz him and Phil Anselmo got along sooo famously. Seriously you people know nothing about metal lol.
by scooter on 7/14/2012 12:43am
Krome your the best mate a bloke could ask for, miss you. Shine down bro!!
by Stone Cold Steve Austin on 7/22/2012 5:10pm
Gimme a hell yeah.
by grappler1984 on 8/26/2012 7:42am
Sounds based on the lyrics that its about some guy in a coma.
by Phil Anselmo on 1/10/2013 6:53pm
This song has nothing to do with dime, it is about a friend that wwas in a car wreck and was in a coma, then he died,
by g-reg on 11/7/2022 12:03pm
True friends won't let something like a drug addiction ruin their relationship. That being said I always thought this song was about one of his friends that committed suicide. That's just the vibe I got listening to this song quite a few times and having done absolutely no research other than this, which seems to be a bunch of peoples opinions of what they think the song means
