lyrics

I will name your dead
If you will name mine
For two voices raised in song
Are better than one that can falter

I will mark your steps
You may tread in mine
If you have enemies, we have enemies
And if I’m still living, you’ve got time

This is the promise oft made
Forcèd, unmeant
Laid at the foot of a god long dead
Who will hold us to task for what we’ve said
If we say
If we say

The magic has long left the land
We may climb the mountain and stand where once was holy to stand
I, eyes closed, to see if I feel it
Close as I’ve ever come would be with you

Name the dead!
Times with gods is gone
I can do too much and know such
That I need not think of the dead or the death to come
But double voiced we may invoke any chosen magic twice as deep
And if you have a restless night, you may share my sleep

This is the promise, this is the promise
(I will name your dead)
