[Verse 1]
Under the ash tree, I stood alone
Salt on my tongue, bone to bone
Old chalk circles in the dirt
Names on my wrist like a hidden curse
A crow on the fence kept time
Moon in the bowl, black wine
I heard my blood say, "Rise"
And the dark split open wide
[Chorus]
Awakened, awakened (awakened)
I answer the fire in me
Sage magic user wizard sorcerer mage Witch Awakened
I walk where the wild things breathe
Awakened, awakened (awakened)
No chain can finish me
[Verse 2]
I learned from nettle and rain
From cracked old bells and windowpane
From herbs hung dry above the sink
From every silence that made me think
I wore my fear like a veil
Then I fed it to the gale
Now every scar is a star
And every wound opens a door
[Chorus]
Awakened, awakened (awakened)
I answer the fire in me
Sage magic user wizard sorcerer mage Witch Awakened
I walk where the wild things breathe
Awakened, awakened (awakened)
No chain can finish me
[Bridge]
[Half-time, drums drop low]
I was the ember
I was the stone
I was the hand
That called me home
[Chorus]
Awakened, awakened (awakened)
I answer the fire in me
Sage magic user wizard sorcerer mage Witch Awakened
I walk where the wild things breathe
Awakened, awakened (awakened)
No chain can finish me
