Lord Huron - The Yawning Grave, Frozen Pines

 Lord Huron - The Yawning Grave, Frozen Pines

The Yawning Grave

I know the rain like the clouds know the sky

I speak to birds and tell them where to fly

I sing the songs that you hear on the breeze

I write the names of the rocks and the trees


Oh, you fool, there are rules I am coming for you

Darkness brings evil things, oh, the reckoning begins


I tried to warn you when you were a child

I told you not to get lost in the wild

I sent you omens and all kinds of signs

I taught you melodies, poems, and rhymes


Oh, you fool, there are rules, I am coming for you

(You can run but you can't escape)

Darkness brings evil things, oh, the reckoning begins

(You will open the yawning grave)


Oh, you fool, there are rules, I am coming for you

(You can run but you can't escape)

Darkness brings evil things, oh, the reckoning begins

(You will open the yawning grave)





Frozen Pines

Deep into the night

With the moonlight as my guide

I go wander through the pines and make my way to nature's shrine


And I look up to the sky

And I know you're still alive

But I wonder where you are, I call your name into the dark


I wake up in the morning, oh, and I don't know where I've been

All alone on a mountainside and I'm huddled in the wind

And it feels like I've been away for an era but nothing has changed at all

And it feels like I've been with you, oh, but what did we do and where have you gone


On the night you disappeared

Oh, if I had seen it clear

But a strange light in the sky was shining right into my eyes


There was no one else in sight

Just the endless frozen pines

But I wonder all they know 'cause they don't die and they don't grow


I am ready to follow you even though I don't know where

I will wait in the night until you decide to take me there

'Cause I know I don't wanna stay here forever, it's time to be movin' on

Oh I don't want to be the only one living when all of my friends are gone


I will be waiting for you, on the other side of the frozen pines

I'm gonna find a way through, there's another life beyond the line

I will be waiting for you, on the other side of the frozen pines

I'm gonna find a way through, there's another life beyond the line
