Three Men Carried its legs out from the forest Those old Wooden bones could not get out on their own Sap will run through your veins once again, when we get you home The Fourth Brother from a long line of pines, it’s far from over This bark covered body will feast and learn to walk on your own The grain of your wood still remains true A place full of mystery where wood is king You now are crowned and hold a staff. Your branch remains mighty wood elemental wood from wood gave wood to me

Barn Dweller 06:38
Nocturnal calls for night and it call for them bellowing black eyes silently soaring listeners to evenings death swallowing us whole mysterious encounters cautionary tales of those watching in the dark feather bone and stone who cooks for you, who cooks for you all

Fourlegged 03:09
Hurry up before they come my brother Never going to be our home This land is no longer yours my mother Never going to call it home A beast has killed our father Never going to be our home Its time to leave the fire don't forget the water Is it all doomed I wonder? Long in tooth long in nail why do we bother?

The Cryptid 05:16
under moonlight lunar light you can see those steps giant steps Stomping out the town the oldest town Under moonlight lunar light Its headed to the woods back to the woods where no mnn lives this aint no mnn that home that no one knows The wilderness it roams wild and alone

Hear the whistling calls riding these winds See the Glacier breaking under those feet Hear the whistling calls riding these winds The Arctic Hunt has now begun Few Folk have ever crossed the mountain For the mystical ceremony where we drink his blood Wild Man we carry your Stone Wild Man that runs through the Snow Will your tracks lead us to a place that’s unknown Or to that place we’ll wish we never knew

Elkrider 07:05
A crown of Bones wet nosed and white tailed running trails long forgotten He’s going to find you even though you’re far away No saddle Nor Spurs Just a handful of fur Become the beast rider Dense grows the forests and Dense grows that family the Elk Rider will forget the history that made him this way

Skinwalker 04:05
She's sneaking in Sneaking into my skin My own voice has become so thin I'm just another skin She got her eyes on some claws this craft breaks the natural law it turns feet into paws our precious skins are the cost walking among us unseen and ends our lives in a bad dream its just a bad dream

Mothmnn 08:08
Fluttering wings vibrating wings heard from the valley Hexagonal eyes red lensed eyes peer through out well lit window any which way its coming navigating stars and searching wanted to stand with us fireside Trying to twist our granite minds
