dark matter - hollow daughter lyrics
[verse one]
was i a daughter or just a tool?
a name in your book, another fool?
if love is pain, then i was blessed
but tell me, father: was i ever more than less?
i learned to bleed with a grateful smile
took every scar and called it worthwhile
a broken bird with clipped+down wings
still singing, still praying you’d see me as something
[pre+chorus]
tell me i mattered
tell me i shone
tell me i wasn’t just skin over bone
but silence is colder than any embrace
and your lovе was a phantom i’ll never replacе
[chorus]
if i was nothing, why did i try?
why did i beg, why did i cry?
all i wanted was to be seen
now i’m just a ghost in your machine
[verse two]
you came back and so did i
chained in your shadow, too stubborn to die
but every breath was stolen breath
fed to a father who feasts on death
[pre+chorus]
tell me i mattered
tell me i shone
tell me i wasn’t just skin over bone
but silence is colder than any embrace
and your love was a phantom i’ll never replace
[chorus]
if i was nothing, why did i try?
why did i beg, why did i cry?
all i wanted was to be seen
now i’m just a ghost in your machine
[bridge]
i gave you everything, piece by piece
and still you called me worthless
so let me leave you with the one thing i own:
my absence
i tied the ribbon, laced it tight
left the stage, left the light
if i was nothing, then let me be
a final gift, you’re free of me
[chorus]
if i was nothing, why did i try?
why did i beg, why did i cry?
all i wanted was to be seen
now i’m just a ghost in your machine
[outro]
say my name, if you even remember
