Copper Roots and Gold Gates

Verse 1

Stones

Cold grey creek stones

I wash my face in the rush

Where the water runs deep

Where the water runs

Down

Chorus

Volholla

I am coming home

Volholla

I am coming home

My signal is rising

The frequency is clear

Volholla

I am coming home

Verse 2

Dust

Gathering on the porch

The pine trees lean

Heavy

They watch me fade

My body is a heavy weight

My spirit is a thin wire

Tied to the ridge

Singing

Chorus

Volholla

I am coming home

Volholla

I am coming home

My signal is rising

The frequency is clear

Volholla

I am coming home

Bridge

They told us the mountain was the end of the road

But the road just changed into light

I can see the copper lines beneath the soil now

Connecting the roots to the satellites

It is very quiet here

The bell is ringing for a version of me that stayed behind

I am walking into the data

I am walking into the gold

Chorus

Volholla

I am coming home

Volholla

I am coming home

My signal is rising

The frequency is clear

Volholla

I am coming home

Outro

Coming home

Coming home

Coming home

Volholla

Volholla

Signal lost

Signal found
