lyrics

The distant woods are a temple, each tree a supplicant, whispering a prayer indecipherable to human ears

Rain has darkened the pathway, as would a million tears
warm is the Earth, and still warmer by the very second

Distant corn whispers an incantation, yet the landscape is not alive
Seasons turn, but saplings have withered, new life shall not thrive

For those distant trees are a temple, echoing and fast decaying
each twig a shattered fragment of dull decaying bone

Seasons turn, but saplings have withered, new life shall not thrive

Each fallen leaf a crumble of dead grey stone

The distant woods are a temple, each tree a supplicant, whispering a prayer that falls deaf on human ears

about

Urocyon Asheville, North Carolina

Urocyon was born from the ashes of the long-running Appalachian black metal band Shadow of the Destroyer. More melodic in sound, but with the same desperate rage over the destruction of our planet at the altar of capitalism.
