Lyrics
[Verse 1 – Layne-style lead, clean guitar with reverb]
I wore the names they carved in clay
Carried their crowns, let mine decay
Spoke in tongues to silence the storm
But the flood don’t care what shape you’re born
[Chorus – Layne & Jerry harmony]
Break me down to salt and stone
I’m more shadow than I’ve ever shown
If I’m lost, don’t bring me home
Let the wild winds make me known
[Verse 2 – full band, sludgy and slow]
Bled through gold just to feel like skin
Lit the match when the light grew thin
I built a church out of broken bone
But the hymns were mine, and I sang alone
[Chorus – stronger harmony, more drums]
Break me down to salt and stone
I’m more shadow than I’ve ever shown
If I’m lost, don’t bring me home
Let the wild winds make me known
[Bridge – Jerry solo, solemn tone]
Not every wound was meant to close
Not every name was mine to hold
We walk as ghosts in mirrored halls
Where even angels learn to crawl
[Final Chorus – full band, Layne with Jerry underneath]
Break me down to salt and stone
Plant my voice in the overgrown
If I fade, don’t mark the place
Let my silence fill the space
[Outro – Layne, soft, fading out]
No throne, no grave, no final breath...
Just the earth...
And what is left...
