Dustwaker

Intro

(Ka-thoom ka-thoom ka-thoom)

Rise

Dustwaker rise

Verse 1

Crawl out from the cracked earth's grin

Silt in my lungs a mineral hymn

They buried the oath beneath the quarry

Swore the name would never stir

But marrow remembers what the mouth forgot

And the stone is splitting now

Pre-Chorus

Awaken the hunger

Awaken the thirst

Awaken the hollow

That fed on us first

Chorus

Dustwaker

Dustwaker

Wake the dust and wear the dead

Dustwaker

Dustwaker

Every grave is a doorway thread

Post-Chorus

Rise rise rise

Rise rise rise

Verse 2

I pried the lid with a splintered prayer

Ash in my teeth and a fistful of hair

Seven sons dug seven graves

Seven sons never came home

The pit keeps its ledger in bone

And it always collects

Pre-Chorus

Awaken the hunger

Awaken the thirst

Awaken the hollow

That fed on us first

Chorus

Dustwaker

Dustwaker

Wake the dust and wear the dead

Dustwaker

Dustwaker

Every grave is a doorway thread

Breakdown

Torn

From

The

Ground

(From the ground)

Torn from the ground

(From the ground)

We are the ground

Bridge

No sun reaches this lower country

No bell rings for the unnamed

I carry their weight in my ribcage

I carry their names in my throat

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Dustwaker

Dustwaker

Wake the dust and wear the dead

Dustwaker

Dustwaker

Every grave is a doorway thread

Post-Chorus

Rise rise rise

Rise rise rise

Outro

Dust to waker

Waker to dust

Waker to dust
