Solstice Lyrics - Singles - Killers By Trade

As the night grew long and cold 

A dying god in a womb of old 

Longest night and shortest day, yeah 

Winter blows through barren trees 

Across the frozen hills of stone 

Be reborn in the coming day 

Chorus: 

Let the bonfires burn 

Let the leaves turn 

Lets fuck and wake up the sun 

Let the bonfires burn 

Let the winter turn 

Come here and wake the day with me! 

I'm ashen, wrapped in skins 

A horn of mead my only friend 

It gives me warmth to break the freeze 

I'm leaning on my sword 

I'm just too drunk to stand 

Drunk on the forest and her trees 

(Chorus x2) 

In a crowd but we're all alone 

Nemeton, the horned god's home 

I'll take you here in the sacred place 

Cold earth on my pale white skin 

Raging to a drummer's din 

Drunk on the goddess and your face 

Repeat Chorus to end
