Found in the Hollow
I was a ghost in a crowded room
You were a voice with no one to tune
Both of us fading like winter’s breath
Each step forward just a dance with death
But then your eyes met mine
Like thunder splits the quiet
No promises, just silence
But I knew I wouldn’t fight it
We didn’t say a word at first
There’s no language deep enough for thirst
Two shadows leaning in the dark
Two broken hearts with the same cracked spark
You didn’t fix me, I didn’t save you
We just stood still and let the truth come through
That love’s not loud, and hope’s not hollow
Sometimes we're found where the night feels shallow
You took my hand, I took your sorrow
And we were found in the hollow
You had a song you never sang
I had a bell that never rang
You wore pain like a second skin
I kept mine buried deep within
But grace ain’t always dressed in white
Sometimes it stumbles in the night
With tear-streaked cheeks and trembling light
It still can make a wrong thing right
You didn’t need to rescue me
You just let me finally be
Two shadows leaning in the dark
Two broken hearts with the same cracked spark
You didn’t fix me, I didn’t save you
We just stood still and let the truth come through
That love’s not loud, and hope’s not hollow
Sometimes we're found where the night feels shallow
You took my hand, I took your sorrow
And we were found in the hollow
They say lonely only finds more pain
But I found mercy in your name
Not a miracle, not a sign
Just you and me, out of time
Two shadows leaning in the dark
Two broken hearts with the same cracked spark
You didn’t fix me, I didn’t save you
But I saw the light come breaking through
Now love’s not distant, and hope’s not hollow
We’ve learned to dance where the hurt once followed
You took my hand, I took your sorrow
And we were found in the hollow
