Track Insight / Lyrics
I rest in oil and linen cloth
The witcher's hands are slow and sure
He breathes the scent of pine and moss
The twilight deepens, cool and pure
Gravel crunches under heavy boots
The path winds back to where we started
Silver sings in twilight's hush
A hymn half-remembered, departed
Silver on gravel, singing low
Twilight drinks the afterglow
We cut the night, we sever dread
By the driveway, dreams are fed
The cloth moves in a circle rite
Removing ichor, bone, and grime
Each pass a prayer, each stroke a light
That marks the passing of our time
Gravel crunches under heavy boots
The path winds back to where we started
Silver sings in twilight's hush
A hymn half-remembered, departed
Silver on gravel, singing low
Twilight drinks the afterglow
We cut the night, we sever dread
By the driveway, dreams are fed
The hollowbody hums a line
Organ swells like evening tide
Brass muted, warm, a soft design
Where memory and music hide
Silver on gravel, singing low
Twilight drinks the afterglow
We cut the night, we sever dread
By the driveway, dreams are fed
The witcher's breath forms clouds of white
He checks the edge with thumb and eye
No monster left to hunt tonight
Just gravel, steel, and twilight sky
Silver on gravel, singing low
Twilight drinks the afterglow
We cut the night, we sever dread
By the driveway, dreams are fed
Now sheath me in the worn leather
The driveway curves to cottage door
The last note drifts on breeze and heather
We'll wake to grind once more
Silver on gravel, singing low
Twilight drinks the afterglow
We cut the night, we sever dread
By the driveway, dreams are fed
Silver on gravel, singing low
Twilight drinks the afterglow
Steel rests, the night is whole
