Lyrics The Solitary Practitioner - Mukduk

Onward
Onward and up, but never outward
I am inclined to be
The sole practitioner
"Dahr sae do"
I mutter my solemn enchantment
Closing my eyes and counting back
When I feel my prisoner

Spirit come, spirit guide
I'm searching for your warmth tonite
I'm bending all my sticks for you
What more could I be asked from you

Mirror shards and rosemary
Are churned, and charred, and at the ready
Quiet, now
I think I hear a voice

The open air
Her grace shines down on me
The leather's worn
And the flesh is torn
As I slide across the board

Then, she speaks to me
Her voice is lavender lilac divine
"Dahr sae do"
So I do what I have to

Onward
Onward and up, but never outward
I am inclined to be
The sole practitioner
"Dahr sae do"
I mutter my solemn enchantment
Closing my eyes and counting back
When I feel my prisoner

Spirit come, spirit guide
I'm searching for your warmth tonite
I'm bending all my sticks for you
What more could I be asked from you

Mirror shards and rosemary
Are churned, and charred, and at the ready
Quiet, now
I think I hear a voice

The open air
Her grace shines down on me
The leather's worn
And the flesh is torn
As I slide across the board

Then, she speaks to me
Her voice is lavender lilac divine
"Dahr sae do"
So I do what I have to
