Heliophobia

Written and Performed by Hollow December
Recorded at Hothouse Studios by Jeremy Giddings and Craig Harnath
Recorded, Mixed and Produced by Mike Miller

When you need you call my name
And I'm not there to ease your pain
Cast the last straw
Camel won't no more

Hold my gaze
But you won't
I'll turn your page
That you loath

Deep breaths don't get so distressed
The trail is long and treacherous 
You say that I'll never feel your pain
But we all get lost in the woods the same

Hold my gaze
But you won't
You can't change
On your own

When you need you call my name
But I'm out of the woods and I don't want to go back again
You say that you really hate that place
But I think that you really want to stay

In the woods you want to stay
You don't want me to find you 

I can't help if you don't talk
I'm giving up

Out of the Woods

[LYRICS]
Butterfly, I’ve lost my way 
 Saint Peter won’t let me 
 Through the Pearly Gates 
 I need someone to blame 

  Butterfly, there’s no escape 
 I’ll have to play along 
If it feels so great 
Then why is it so wrong?   

We’ll fly high until we reach the top 

  Butterfly, I’m in too deep 
 I’ve nowhere left to reach 
 I’m ok, I’ll be ok 
Just tell me this is safe 

We’ll fly high until we reach the top 
Sometimes the top’s too much for us  

 Crash down 
 Go up 
Crash down 
 Go up, up  
And crash down  

 Go up and crash down 
 You go up and crash down 

  Go up and crash down

[LYRICS]
The day you left for the sky 
 You said you’d call every day 
 But now I’m losing my mind  
You’ve had no signal for days 
 How are supposed to survive? 

  As I wake you shut your eyes  
We can’t seem to get it right 
 When you’re sleeping, I’m thinking 
Of dreaming about you 
 I wake up to the sunrise  
Just so I can say goodnight 
 When I’m dreaming I can’t help thinking   
That you’re not next to me   

Am I victim of your lies?  
Is this beyond your control? 
 I’m so alone, I’m so deprived 
 And I can’t bear to let you know 

  As I wake you shut your eyes  
We can’t seem to get it right 
 As you’re sleeping, I’m thinking 
Of dreaming about you  
I wake up to the sunrise  
Just so I can say goodnight  
When I’m dreaming I can’t help thinking 
 That you’re not next to me 

  I need you

[LYRICS]
We want to feel special but now we all look the same 
 And all that we see on our scrolls gets in our heads  
Love it ’til it gets old 

  My clothes all have holes and the stains won’t come out 
But it’s alright if it's vintage 
 And I’m blanking my past on the street 
Cause I’m a ‘brand new me’  
Love it 'til it gets old 
 Love it ’til it gets old   

You’ll be my step on my journey up 
 I’ll climb higher than any funky monkey  
Tell me I’m beautiful and I will 
Love you until you turn your back 
 Love it ’til it gets old 
 Love it ’til it gets old 

  Obscurity is what frightens me so I scramble to make a scene 
 It’s probably wrong but I don’t really care 
Voices in my head keep me from sleep  
They’ll love me ’til I get old 
 They’ll love me ’til I get old 

  You’ll be my step on my journey up  
I’ll climb higher than any funky monkey 
 Oh my god, I just love this song  
But I didn’t make it past the first verse 
 Love it ’til it gets old 
 Love it ’til it gets old 

  I used to be special, but now I’m just underpaid 
 And the legacy I’ve left is that strangers don’t recall my name 
 I promised myself once I won’t give into these ways  
But my word is failing fast, I can’t keep up this charade  

 Sow in me the seeds of doubt and I will 
Grow taller, grander, more fragile 
 And when the cracks start showing up 
That’s when I’ll start again 
 A cycle of aspirations leave me left 
With nothing to call my own  
And after all this time and effort 
Will they love me when I get old? 
   
We want to feel special but now we all look the same 
We want to feel special but now we all look the same  
Love it ’til it gets old

Love It 'Til It Gets Old

Thunder

Hollow December are a five piece alt rock outfit from the Western Suburbs of Naarm (Melbourne), Australia. They have been recording and creating eclectic sounding and genre defying music for the past five years and over the course of this time have honed and developed their sonic footprint.

Combining diverse elements of thundering bass, energetic drums, unearthly synths, crooning vocals and one very effect laden violin - the quintet strives to create mood-driven alt rock music with a cinematic twist.
