Lyrics

Intro

Ayo

Ayo

Chorus

Heard it in the marrow

Heard it in the bone

Ancient hollowed timber

Leading us back home

Heard it in the marrow

Heard it in the bone

Leading us back home

Post-Chorus

La la la

Oh ayo

La la la

Verse 1

Palms against the tightened goat skin

Thump

Palm to palm the ghosts begin

Fingers snapping like a summer storm

Tuned to where the early blood was warm

Pre-Chorus

It is rising in the chest

It is waking in the lung

It is heavy in the blood

Chorus

Heard it in the marrow

Heard it in the bone

Ancient hollowed timber

Leading us back home

Heard it in the marrow

Heard it in the bone

Leading us back home

Post-Chorus

La la la

Oh ayo

La la la

Verse 2

Call to the river and the red dust

A single stroke

Blowing through the valley like a gust

Hollow wooden throat speaks without a word

Deepest vibration that the spirit ever heard

Pre-Chorus

It is rising in the chest

It is waking in the lung

It is heavy in the blood

Chorus

Heard it in the marrow

Heard it in the bone

Ancient hollowed timber

Leading us back home

Heard it in the marrow

Heard it in the bone

Leading us back home

Bridge

Heel toe heel toe

Slow

Moving through the pattern we already know

Iron and the seed pod shaking

Wait for the shell of the night to start breaking

Chorus

Heard it in the marrow

Heard it in the bone

Ancient hollowed timber

Leading us back home

Heard it in the marrow

Heard it in the bone

Leading us back home
