作曲:头条梦三
作词:头条梦三
Bare hands
On a rusted chain
White breath
In the freezing rain
Your name
Caught behind my teeth
I taste the sky
Like it could bleed
We were climbing
Past the warnings
Past the prayers they taught us as kids
One step further
Into thunder
You let go
And I never did
Ashes on the mountain
Blown back in my face
Every stone remembers
Where you slipped away
I scream into the distance
Till my voice is frayed
Ashes on the mountain
But your shadow stays
Your coat
Still on the empty chair
Boot prints
Frozen halfway there
I trace
Every crooked line
Trying to barter
With borrowed time
If I’d pulled you
If I’d reached you
Would the earth have opened the same
All these questions
Like an avalanche
Bury me
Under your name
Ashes on the mountain
Blown back in my face
Every stone remembers
Where you slipped away
I scream into the distance
Till my voice is frayed
Ashes on the mountain
But your shadow stays
I walk that ridge at night
Where we carved our crooked vow
I lay my heart in the ice
You can have it now
If there is a door in the storm
If there is a way through the fall
Take my breath take my bones
Just give me back one call
Ashes on the mountain
Blown back in my face
Every stone remembers
Where you slipped away
I scream into the distance
Till my voice is frayed
Ashes on the mountain
But your shadow stays
Ashes on the mountain
My trembling faith
I’d burn this broken body
To see your face
I stand at the edge
Where you disappeared
Ashes on the mountain
And you feel so near
Bare hands
On the rusted chain
One name
In the pouring rain
