[Verse]
In the hollow where shadows creep
Badgers burrow their secrets deep
Moonlight cuts through the tangled trees
Whispering truths on a cold night breeze
[Chorus]
Shadow in the hollow they run they hide
Underneath the canopy where darkness collides
Echoes of the wild hearts beat inside
Shadow in the hollow nowhere to confide
[Verse 2]
Claw marks etched on the ancient bark
Silent wars waged in the pitch-black dark
Moss-covered stones guard the stories untold
Where the brave grow weary and the timid grow bold
[Prechorus]
The forest hums a song so thin
Of fur and teeth and battles within
[Chorus]
Shadow in the hollow they run they hide
Underneath the canopy where darkness collides
Echoes of the wild hearts beat inside
Shadow in the hollow nowhere to confide
[Bridge]
Glowing eyes like ember sparks
A kingdom ruled by moonlit arcs
Do they fear the light or crave its sting
Are they kings or just pawns of the woodland ring
