Daughter of the Hollow

[Verse 1] She was born where the map fades out Where the roots reach deep and the stars don’t shout Eyes like storms that never fell Raised on secrets no one tells [Pre-Chorus] She don’t speak unless it’s rain She walks where others don’t remain [Chorus] She’s the daughter of the hollow With the river in her veins She don’t ask and she don’t follow She just moves like phantom flame Crows cry when she’s near But she never sheds a tear She’s the daughter of the hollow And the hollow holds her dear [Verse 2] Taught to sing by wind and well Braided time into a spell Wore a crown of leaves and bone Learned to dance alone [Pre-Chorus] She hears things beneath the sound What’s been lost, and what’s been found [Chorus] She’s the daughter of the hollow With the river in her veins She don’t ask and she don’t follow She just moves like phantom flame Crows cry when she’s near But she never sheds a tear She’s the daughter of the hollow And the hollow holds her dear [Bridge] Some say she’s a warning Others say she’s grace But the ones who try to cage her Are never seen again [Final Chorus] She’s the daughter of the hollow With the night inside her name She don’t run and she don’t borrow She just walks between the planes Leaves fall when she’s near But she never shows her fear She’s the daughter of the hollow And the hollow holds her dear
