[Verse 1]
I lace my cloak and run
Through fern and blackthorn thorn
My silk hem catches root
My bare feet learn the dawn
A silver deer looks back
Then slips between the firs
I follow where you left
Your name in bark and birds
[Pre-Chorus]
My crown grows heavy
With every shattered plea
I run like a daughter
Of the oaken sea
[Chorus]
Wolfpath crown, carry me
(oh, carry me)
Wolfpath crown, set me free
(set me free)
I won't kneel in the ash
I was born to flee
Wolfpath crown, carry me
Through the dark birch trees
[Verse 2]
The moss is cold as vows
The pines keep all my tears
I hear the hounds behind
But I won't feed my fear
I lift my face to storm
Let rain unbind my braid
No hall can hold my breath
No chain can keep my blade
[Pre-Chorus]
My crown grows lighter
When the crows begin to sing
I am the wild child
Of a broken king
[Chorus]
Wolfpath crown, carry me
(oh, carry me)
Wolfpath crown, set me free
(set me free)
I won't kneel in the ash
I was born to flee
Wolfpath crown, carry me
Through the dark birch trees
[Bridge]
If they call me lost
Let them call me that
I am the moonlit track
And the wolfing path
I leave my grief in roots
My fear in winter grain
I run until the hurt
Turns to a holy rain
[Final Chorus]
Wolfpath crown, carry me
(oh, carry me)
Wolfpath crown, set me free
(set me free)
I won't kneel in the ash
I was born to flee
Wolfpath crown, carry me
Through the dark birch trees
