Track Insight / Lyrics

You rock slow on splintered pine Embers kiss the broken shrine Salt wind carries ash like tide Lantern gutters deep inside Fire dances on cracked stone You watch the light die all alone Weathered hands know every spark Night waits past the final dark Crows pick at the ashen ground No bell tolls, no keeper's sound Your chair groans with rope and rust Memories grind like wave to dust Flame leans west where gulls don't cry You've seen the sun drown, seen it die No ship comes, no signal fire Just smoke and twisted copper wire Fire dances on cracked stone You watch the light die all alone Weathered hands know every spark Night waits past the final dark The oil's low, the wick is frayed No coast guard left, no debt unpaid You'll tend this pyre till dawn breaks gray Then rock to sleep where keepers stay Dawn bleeds thin on cathedral stone Your chair sits empty, splintered bone The bonfire pops a final spark You've kept the light against the dark Fire dances on cracked stone You watch the light die all alone Weathered hands know every spark Night waits past the final dark Rock slow now, the watch is done Salt and ash become as one
