The Woods Remember Her (Leon cover)

[Verse 1] She walked through the dark with no shoes on her feet The forest leaned in, and the silence grew sweet A crown made of nettles, a dress torn and wild The woods called her witch, the moon called her child ⸻ [Chorus] The woods remember her The roots still speak her name She vanished like smoke — but she’s not lost, just changed The moss knows her footsteps The crows know her cry They buried a girl But a legend rose high ⸻ [Verse 2] No searchlight could find her, no path led her back Just a trail of red thread and a whispering track The wind hummed her lullaby, strange and off-key And the branches bowed low like they bent to her knee ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] She fed the roots with secrets She stitched her name in bark She left the world of reason To reign within the dark ⸻ [Chorus] The woods remember her The thorns bloom red in spring They say if you call her— you won’t feel a thing The stream runs backwards The birds hush their song She’s part of the forest now… and the forest lives long ⸻ [Bridge] One for the breathless Two for the flame Three for the girl Who forgot her name Four for the silence Five for the lie Six for the truth That never quite died ⸻ [Final Chorus] The woods remember her The trees still twist her tale She walks where no heart beats No pulse, no trail The moon is her witness The roots are her bed She isn’t forgotten She just isn’t dead
