Storm You Left Behind

Intro

Oh-oh

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

Lanterns on the river bend

I carved your name in cedar bark

Cold wind through the paper screens

Counting every fading mark

The mountain keeps its old advice

I never learned to take it

Pre-Chorus

So I run

So I run

Chorus

I am the storm you left behind

I am the storm

Sharp as a shrine

I am the storm you left behind

Burning through the pines

Drop

Storm you left behind

Burning through the pines

Verse 2

Steel drums in a distant town

My shadow learned to walk alone

Every temple I burned down

Was a door I could not close

The river takes the ash away

I keep the smoke inside my chest

Pre-Chorus

So I run

So I run

Chorus

I am the storm you left behind

I am the storm

Sharp as a shrine

I am the storm you left behind

Burning through the pines

Drop

Storm you left behind

Burning through the pines

Bridge

Cut me open

Name the wound

Call it morning

Call it ruin

Cut me open

Name the wound

I am still here

I am still here

Chorus

I am the storm you left behind

I am the storm

Sharp as a shrine

I am the storm you left behind

Burning through the pines

Drop

Storm you left behind

Burning through the pines
