00:21Before the church there was fire
00:24There was drum, there was bone
00:29Before the crown there was winter
00:31There was blood, there was stone
00:36Leave your name by the long house wall
00:39At the baseline, carry what you cannot hold
00:43One hold, breathing under red light
00:46Four hundred hearts, keep in time
00:51I can feel the drop before it arrives
00:54It is already in my body
00:58Something in the way the old drum answers
01:02Feels like the dead, forgive me
01:06Midnight fire
01:07And the north is the most honest it will be
01:12Somewhere between the first drop
01:15And the silence, the ancestors speak
01:20Midnight fire
01:22And the north is the most honest it will be
01:27Somewhere between the first drop
01:30And the silence, the ancestors speak
01:35Riding every frequency like iron through the dark
01:38Blue light on the snow line
01:41Runes under my heart
01:42Ravens above us
01:44Ash beneath our feet
01:46We built a frost line
01:47Ritual out of pressure and beat
01:49No priest, no choir
01:51No promise of release
01:53Just bodies by the fire
01:55Trying to wake the ancient peace
01:57The drum has been building
01:59Since the first breath
02:00Feel it
02:01I have been inside this rhythm
02:03And it is the safest place I know
02:06Somewhere between the first drop
02:08And the silence, the ancestors speak
02:13Midnight fire
02:15And the north is the most honest it will be
02:36The drop hit and every shadow moved at the same time
02:41For one moment, nobody stood alone
02:45The raven circled over us
02:47Black wings in the smoke
02:48The old world opened and the frozen ground spoke
02:52We are not machines
02:54We are blood and flame
02:56Ancient bones in modern sound
02:59No, no, no, no, no, no
03:03Midnight fire
03:09And the north is
03:11Midnight fire
03:12When the north is the most honest
03:17It will be
03:19Somewhere between the first drop
03:23And the silence
03:27Yeah
03:28Yeah
03:31Testors speak
03:32The jaw harp hunts
03:35The cold wind knows
03:37The beep ends
03:38But the old fire grows
03:55Oh, oh, oh, oh
