The dust gathers on the photograph, a smile I used to know
The echoes of a broken path, where autumn winds would blow
I walk through rooms that once held laughter, now the air is cold
Chasing ghosts of forever after, a story left untold
A faded color in my mind, a whisper in the static hum
Just fragile pieces left behind, from where we used to come.

But something shifted in the air, a whisper turned to dread
A silent promise, hanging there, in words we left unsaid
And now the echoes fill the space, a hollow, aching sound
No time can ever quite erase, what once was hallowed ground...

Oh, I loved you once, with every burning grace!
Across the void, I still recall your face!
I loved you once, a wild, untamed desire!
Consumed by hope, consumed by bitter fire!
And every shattered piece still screams your name!
I loved you once, but it's never been the same!

I built a bridge, a path to cross, beyond the crumbling wall
But every step became a loss, I watched the empires fall
The whispered words, the silent fights, the battles left unsaid
They haunt my lonely, endless nights, inside this tired head
A phantom touch, a ghost embrace, a warmth that won't remain
Just broken promises that chase, through sun and pouring rain.

But something shifted in the air, a whisper turned to dread
A silent promise, hanging there, in words we left unsaid
And now the echoes fill the space, a hollow, aching sound
No time can ever quite erase, what once was hallowed ground...

Oh, I loved you once, with every burning grace!
Across the void, I still recall your face!
I loved you once, a wild, untamed desire!
Consumed by hope, consumed by bitter fire!
And every shattered piece still screams your name!
I loved you once, but it's never been the same!

They say that time can heal the wounds, that memories will fade
But every dawn, the sorrow looms, a game that's truly played
I burn the letters, curse the sky, I scream into the void
For just one breath, one reason why, our fragile love destroyed!
This empty space, it tears my soul, a truth I can't deny!
To make me whole, to lose control, beneath a broken sky!

Oh, I loved you once, with every burning grace!
Across the void, I still recall your face!
I loved you once, a wild, untamed desire!
Consumed by hope, consumed by bitter fire!
And every shattered piece still screams your name!
I loved you once, but it's never been the same!

Fusing haunting melodic builds with raw screams, emotional destruction with slow-burning sensuality, and ambient industrial grit with poetic lyricism, the sound is both a confession and a collapse. Drawing from personal trauma, insomnia, maladaptive daydreams, lust, and spiritual grief, Hearts in Collapse lives in the space between breakdown and rebirth. No genre walls. No emotional filter. Just a bleeding voice in a dim-lit world, chasing something real
