Track Insight / Lyrics
I hold the bow with wooden grip
I feel the resin start to slip
The embers glow a heavy red
The dying sparks are nearly dead
Singe the air with a silver line
Turning rust into something fine
Watch the cinder, watch the heat
Keep the rhythm, keep the beat
The stone is cold beneath my base
I map the lines of every face
A hollow shell of ancient grey
Where all the colors bleed away
The wind is sharp, a winter blade
Inside this ruin, in the shade
The bonfire flickers, low and thin
While metal scrapes against the skin
Singe the air with a silver line
Turning rust into something fine
Watch the cinder, watch the heat
Keep the rhythm, keep the beat
One sharp note to break the freeze
Bring the mountain to its knees
Iron wires, burning bright
Tearing holes inside the night
The ash is falling like a veil
The dying light is turning pale
I play the song for ghosts in line
Until the morning sun will shine
Singe the air with a silver line
Turning rust into something fine
Watch the cinder, watch the heat
Keep the rhythm, keep the beat
Gold string, cold steel.
Gold string, cold steel.
Just the heat.
