The Hollow Girl

People please! If it should be a lyric then DanaC will have posted it as a potential lyric. It stands perfectly on its own.

The dual nature of the word "passed" is how she intentionally puts death in our mind. There is a specific change in the girl between stanza one and stanza four; the girl has changed herself in stanza three, the only active stanza. But the identical ending line suggests to you that the meaning has changed.

It is practically mathematical in its nature, and if it were a symphony it would be Bach.
