Gravel tongue and a lantern sky,
She left in smoke without goodbye.
Breath turned black on windowpane,
I dream of rust and acid rain.

[Verse 2]
Her laugh still stains the maple floor,
Like blood beneath a cellar door.
Eyes stitched shut with threads and bone,
She sings through roots that crack my home.

[Hook]
I wear her name like steel wire,
Coiled tight around my throat.
The tree don’t bend the leash won't break,
I’m just bark,  bone and smoke.

[Verse 3]
Cracked memory echo holds faint,
Of nails and silk and drying paint.
Each step’s a thorn through shards of glass,
She speaks through me—but she never asks.

[Bridge]
Tetherbone, my tetherbone,
Bark for ghosts but liv alone.
She carved her name in bark and thread,
Now I'm left with what she bled.

[Hook – Repeat with slight variation]
I howl but no gods descend.
Her name's the rune I bend.
The collar's carved in stone and flame—
It drinks my breath. It speaks her name.


[Outro – whisper fade, like a prayer]
Crows don’t sing where love once lay,
Just creak and moan the wood will sway.
Tied to time, leashed to a tree,
And none but silence speaks for me.

Tether Bone

IT FOLLOWS ME

A deeply sorrowful rock ballad about the regret of lost time and missed opportunities to say goodbye. The song explores the painful realization that comes too late - when death arrives before we've expressed our love or fears. Haunting imagery of flickering flames, funeral flowers, and fading twilight underscores themes of grief, regret, and the crushing weight of things left unsaid.

Lyrics by Kenneth Carlino

Out of Time

Step into a primal soundscape where the earth speaks, drums awaken, and ancient spirits dance through fire. Ritual Fire is a deep tribal journey blending pounding percussion, hypnotic basslines, and ethereal melodies.

This track evokes the energy of ancient ceremonies, where desire burns, the soul stirs, and the rhythm pulls you into a trance. Flutes cry in the wind, voices rise from the ground, and the night becomes alive with movement and magic.

Ritual Fire

Verse
I must confess my sun-kissed angel
I haven't seen the sunshine in quite some time
If there's a hell on Earth
I'm living in it now

Verse
And it's been hard to sleep without you
It's been hard to breathe without you
You don't know how many nights I lie awake
Staring at the ceiling

Chorus
But mum's the word
Mum's the word
Mum's the word
Mum's the word

Verse
And I've been missing you more than ever
I've been missing you more than ever
I've been missing you more than ever
But you're better where you are

Verse
And sometimes I get so lost in this world
I just want to be found
You don't know how many nights I lie awake
Waiting for you to come around

Chorus
But mum's the word
Mum's the word
Mum's the word
Mum's the word

Mum's The Word

Christian College Indie Rock



[Verse 1]
Pages torn fingers bleed
Words like swords cut what I need
Digging deeper for the truth unseen

[Prechorus]
Can’t fake it
Can’t shake it
The weight of knowing

[Chorus]
Study to show approved
Am I enough am I enough
Through fire and proof
Am I enough am I enough

[Verse 2]
Late nights candles burn low
Questions rise answers don’t show
I’m searching searching will I ever know

[Prechorus]
Heart’s breaking
Hands shaking
The weight of knowing

[Chorus]
Study to show approved
Am I enough am I enough
Through fire and proof
Am I enough am I enough

[Verse 1]
Who sees all the dark
Hidden deep inside
Sinful mark
Try to hide
In the night

[Prechorus]
Clean me Lord
With your word

[Chorus]
My words are flawed
So flawed
Clean me
Clean, Lord!

[Verse 2]
Thoughts unclear
Like a muddied stream
Always fear
A waking dream
Unredeemed

[Prechorus]
Clean me Lord
With your word

[Chorus]
My words are flawed
So flawed
Clean me
Clean, Lord!
