Stone in my palm, blood in my tread Wolf at my back, moon overhead No road behind, just the birch and the brine Breath like smoke in the frozen pine Let the sky pull the thread from my spine I won’t bend to the weight of the line I was born with no tether, no plea— Let the wind split the bark of the tree I run with the wind, no tether, no name Ash on my skin, thunder in vein High on the cliff where the wild gods scream I run, I run, through the marrow of dreams Tracks in the snow I won’t walk twice I don’t need coin, I don’t roll dice Born of fire, fed by frost I carry no shame for the names I lost Let the storm crack the shell off my bones I won’t kneel in the wind-blasted stones Let the wolves sing the verse I can’t write I’ll be gone by the edge of the light I run with the wind, no tether, no name Ash on my skin, thunder in vein High on the cliff where the wild gods scream I run, I run, through the marrow of dreams One breath between the earth and flame One step and I won’t be the same The forest kneels, the sky bends low No weight can hold what’s made to go I run with the wind, no tether, no name Ash on my skin, thunder in vein High on the cliff where the wild gods scream I run, I run, through the marrow of dreams
