Cult Of Luna
The Long Road North
1. Cold Burn
Breathe into the harrowing wind
To uncover truths hidden by snow
Melting water cleanses the ground
Breathe into the freezing haze
The cold burns like salt in a wound
Howl
Your skull is screaming
The sky darkens
Visions dragged from light
Ice pierces your skin
Carving wounds from within
Pain moves through every vein
Frost covers figures too dim for you to see
Years go by faster
Seasons no longer hold their line
From its den under the mountain
Wings spread out across the night
Howl
Your skull is screaming
The sky darkens
Visions dragged from light
Pain moves through every vein
Frost covers figures too dim for you to see
The cold burns
2. The Silver Arc
Screams that linger still
Like nails buried deep
Blind faith reigns forever
Far beyond their vision of truth
They stood
Where memories pass
A mark
A premonition of what's to come
Waiting - watching
Born from a broken womb
Pain is breeding life
Deliver names of the chosen
Until a silver lining cracks the sky
Blind faith reigns forever
Far beyond their vision of truth
Blind faith reigns forever
3. Beyond (I)
Someone's calling out my name
I hear the echo, bleak and frail
Every time I close my eyes
I see you
Something's moving up ahead
Shadows flickering and vague
My feet are cold, my eyes are dim
As I fall down
Beneath a sky of black and blue
Into a night that never ends
Every time I close my eyes
I see you
4. An Offering to the Wild
The last birds have left
Exiled by winter
Lights of the north
A dancing halo
Stretching over mountains
The whispers forge every lake
Far have you wandered
Lay down
Close your eyes
Embrace the final rest
Long lasting calls wither and die
A fading sun
A falling star
A growing rage
A distant roar
Your fire betrayed you
The scent reveals where you hide
Shadows reaching to claim your reeking skin
Signs of a storm, no need to repent
This wall is heading for you, its will is your end
5. Into the Night
Into the night
Walk through the rain
Away from the lights
And in the distance
You're fading away
And I run through the night
Across the bridge beneath the sky
When I let go of your hand
You vanished in plain sight
I hear you calling
To meet you where the river ends
Into the night
It's coming my way
I see your face
Dissolve in the rain
And I run through the night
Across the bridge beneath the sky
When I let go of your hand
You vanished in plain sight
I hear you calling
To meet you where the river ends
6. Full Moon
7. The Long Road North
The red creek carries me home, always
Burying my roots where I can breathe
The heart directs me north, always
Where the sky erupts with colours
A faint song turns into a storm
Calling me back to where I belong
Every field and lake you see
Will forever be a part of me
Birch trees on each side
And the beat of my heart as a guide
The wind whispers my name, always
I let it lead me to where it ends
A faint song turns into a storm
Calling me back to where I belong
Memories cling on
As I walk the long road north
8. Blood upon Stone
When winter denies the dawn
When the sun is held captive
There is no place where you can run
Out here you'll die alone
Blood upon stone
The hunt is on
Now you will see
Now you will embrace your end
When light wins the struggle
When rays burn through the fog
Blood upon stone
The hunt is on
Now you will see
Now you will embrace your end
Surrender to me
Give in and descend
The night has left you
But darkness remains
Pale hands seek shelter
Tears turn earth to clay
Your star is fading
It bleeds you out
Your star is fading
What's left is an empty void
Your star is fading
9. Beyond (II)
