Track Insight / Lyrics
Smoke clears on silver steel, molten, scarred
Embers dying in the dark, a witcher's toll
Through pine dappled with moonlight, edge of rust
Heathen wisps of fog, a spectral rust
[Pre-
Blade at the ready, a heartbeat swift
Lurching toward the unknown with steely grip
Treetops sway in the midnight breeze
Darkness beckons, a lover's ease
Shadow-shrouded, drifting, wild and free
Thrusting forth through the pines, destiny
Grit in the palms and a will unbroken
Drifting toward the night, the darkness spoken
Sharp winds keen like ancient incantations
Telegraph wires hum like an unseen passion
Pines stand watch, silent sentinels of the deep
As his step falls through the shadows, heedless and deep
[Pre-
Screaming saw and hiss of spent rounds
Echoes fade through the whispers 'round
Beneath the moon's pale replicate
He walks alone, fate's fix, he'll consecrate
Shadow-shrouded, drifting, wild and free
Thrusting forth through the pines, destiny
Grit in the palms and a will unbroken
Drifting toward the night, the darkness spoken
Crescendo of discord, strings grinding
Chaos surges, echoes wind and blind
Guitar screamed in tortured wail
Cutting a path, he stands tall
Searing notes slice through the night
Anguished wails, metallic bite
Cascading harmonies, a tempest's roar
The witcher's anthem, an iron score
Shadow-shrouded, drifting, wild and free
Thrusting forth through the pines, destiny
Grit in the palms and a will unbroken
Drifting toward the night, the darkness spoken
Guitar fades to echo, a lone refrain
Last notes linger, then wind is still
Moonlight fades, dawn's pale light awakes
Edge of rust, a tale unwritten still.
