Empty Speech by H-DMAN SUCH is a track that addresses an individual dealing with the hollowness of emotional erasure and remorse. In the recording, we find a person that found sanctuary in empty words for appearance, which concealed actual emotion behind words carefully selected. H-DMAN SUCH makes a vivid picture of a person that compromised principle for acceptance, only to find that that left them cold, alone.

It ranges from remorse through self-realization. In early stanzas, he, H-DMAN SUCH, tells that he compromised on integrity for the sake of surviving, doing and saying everything desired from him. It is a rather brutal but sincere piece, for he confesses that he strayed so distant from that which was of most value. It is a matter of learning that being safe on a emotional level bears a latent price: loneliness.

Then the lyrics turn because H-DMAN SUCH begins to reap the harvest of said choices. He bemoans having allowed real relationships to perish and having forgotten that which provided life with a sense of direction. Its isolation, not that of becoming vulnerable, becomes feared more. This part is richly human, for the singer regrets having lost not only love, but the capacity for love.

There is hope finally, towards the end of Empty Phrases. SUCH goes on a rhapsody of transmutation, brought back on love towards himself. It is not moving back towards the past, but towards something new after having confronted painful realities. Those regular lines towards the end are that silent relief of finding that which was missing all along.

Overall, the poetry of Empty Phrases is emotional and sentimental. They talk about how fast we can lose touch with our feelings, but that that reconnection of them, even through remorse, can revive us.
