Ashen Trail

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I walked the ash line home Under the elk-bone moon Boots full of river mud Hands full of cedar smoke You said my name like stone Spun it in the dark I left a track of crows On the frozen bark [Pre-Chorus] Hear that drum, hear that drum Calling through the pines Old blood waking up Under my skin this time [Chorus] Run with the ash trail Run with me now Run with the ash trail We know the way down (ash trail) We know the way down [Verse 2] You wore a wolfskin grin I wore my hollow years We fed the cold a vow And split our fear in two Bones in the riverbed Salt in the cedar bowl I buried my old name To keep your shadow whole [Pre-Chorus] Hear that drum, hear that drum Calling through the pines Old blood waking up Under my skin this time [Chorus] Run with the ash trail Run with me now Run with the ash trail We know the way down (ash trail) We know the way down [Bridge] Now the fire bends low And the night leans in I don’t come back the same I come back through the skin [Final Chorus] Run with the ash trail Run with me now Run with the ash trail We know the way down (ash trail) We know the way down Run with the ash trail Call my name out loud (ash trail) Call my name out loud
