The 13th gate

The days roll on like stones in a river
Smooth on the surface sharp underneath
I’ve walked through twelve doors made of memory and silver
Each one a whisper of the person I used to be

And the wind keeps calling my name
Like it knows where I’m headed
Like it’s seen this road before

Cause life moves along until the 13th gate
Where the shadows bend and the stars rotate

Where the truth you’ve buried comes awake
And the path you feared becomes your fate
Yeah, life keeps moving, never waits
Not till you reach that 13th gate

I’ve carried old ghosts in the folds of my jacket
Faces and choices I tried to outrun

And the night keeps humming my name
Like it’s pulling me forward
