"The Ancient Ways" lyrics

"The Ancient Ways"

I walk alone down the old straight track, through the wildwood
The olden oaks seem to watch me as I pass
Creeping deep down the holloways, willow-witching
The pendulum unveils the hidden path

I walk the ancient ways
Where no mortal soul has roamed
I dowse along the sacred leys, all alone
On the trail of the Great Unknown

Psilocybin my only guide, revelator
I can see the patterns in the leaves
The ash vortex, the spiral track, time is slowing
I have found the road to Lavondyss

I walk the ancient ways
In the realm of the mythago
I dowse along the sacred leys, all alone
On the trail of the Great Unknown

The clearest way into the universe
Is through a forest wilderness
The clearest way into the universe
Is through a forest wilderness
Yeah yeah

I walk the ancient ways
From oak and ash to ice and stone
I dowse along the sacred leys, all alone
On the trail of the Great Unknown

I walk the ancient ways
I'm on the trail
I walk the ancient ways
I'm on the trail
