Hollow Years Lyrics

Performed by Dream Theater
Review The Song (6)

John Petrucci - Composer


He's just the kind of man
You hear about
Who leaves his family for
An easy out
They never saw the signs
He 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 cloud that's raining
Over your 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
(Into the waves)
Walk me across the water
And maybe you'll understand

Once the stone
You're crawling under
(Once the stone)
Is lifted off your shoulders
Once the cloud that's raining
Over your 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
(Into the waves)
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 your head disappears
The noise that you'll hear
Is the crashing down of hollow years

Once the stone
You're crawling under
Once the stone
You're crawling under
(The sound you'll hear,)
Once the stone
(the crashing)
You're crawling under
(down of hollow years)
Once the stone
You're crawling under
Once the stone
You're crawling under
Once the stone
You're crawling under
(The sound you'll hear, the crashing down of hollow years)

Eerie lyrics in relation to my current situation | Reviewer: michael | 2/11/12

I was just introduced to DT in mid December 2011. This was right when my marriage was disentigrating. Just today 2/11/2012 I heard Hollow Years for the first time. The lyrics immediately grabbed my attention since my wife's new lover, one of my best friends, left his wife and two boys to take up with my wife. Then the lyrics about the female in the song come up and perfectly describe my wife's actions. I was in shock needless to say. Still love this band in spite of the eerie correlation surrounding this particular song.

Petrucci | Reviewer: Jude | 1/10/10

John Petrucci's solo performance is really one of a kind, not to mention the guitar shredding totally rocks! hollow years is only one of my favorite DT songs. i liked their performance at budokan though, really awesome. and the song itself, projected in some kind of a theatrical music really great!! cool! keep it up you guys!

So damn good...! | Reviewer: carpe diem | 12/11/09

Honestly, falling into infinity is not my favorite album from DT. The first time i heard hollow years i felt this song is out of DT's standard and i didn't really like it. BUT, when i saw live at budokan dvd and the band played hollow years...MY GOD..that was really awesome..! Petrucci's solo just blew my mind. One of his best performances, definitly..! I love it.. The song turn out to be one of my favorites now. DT.. You're so damn good..!!
