lyrics

Hammer falling on the wind
Sky-breath rising, fear I rescind
I rescind

Forest of clouds – a zephyr stride
Crags of chaos – the tumultuous ride
Behind and above me – the coming the storm
From rocky veils – tempest was born
Thunderous bellows come
Crash against my core
Whirlwind of fury
Tests my spirit’s form

Tonight, we ride

I long to fly on wings of steel
Shimmering feathers ablaze
Hammer resolve pushes me on
Against the cyclonic tide

Wood thrush heralds my coming

And as I reach the peak
I know this place well
It beckons me…yes…
All that I have seen…

The wind overtakes the ridge
My only choice is to ride
I catch the upward drift
With purpose I now glide

Tonight, I fly

Again I inhale the smoke
For good measure

And so I fly on wings of steel
Shimmering feathers ablaze
Hammer resolve pushes me on
I ride cyclonic tide
All the crowns of the valleys
A whirling verdant haze
Yet this drift only serves
To fan my own flames

Who will know the totality
Of this great expanse but I?
In this I am lost

I see mine immortality
Who knows when I’ll die
Beneath this mountain frost

Laid low by tempest’s kiss
No, I did not come for this
Not a stone was amiss
Thus I defy the call of the abyss
