[Verse]
Iron in the forge
A promise of the spirit
A solemn brave devotion
A hammer to defend
It's courage in the soul
A badge upon the loyal
An honest steady armor
A bond that never ends

[Chorus]
Iron and Gold
Shelter and Light
It's the promise in your heart
To walk a path that's right
Iron and Gold
Loyalty and Love
Oh please guide my way
Lantern from above

[Verse 2]
Gold adorns the hands
A bold unending passion
A simple means of comfort
A precious shining star
It's lasting adoration
A gentleness of yearning
The light of love eternal
A band that joins the heart

[Chorus]
Iron and Gold
Shelter and Light
It's the promise in your heart
To walk a path that's right
Iron and Gold
Loyalty and Love
Oh please guide my way
Lantern from above

[Bridge]
And so you see
My crossroads sin
What I had all along
So blind back then
I've been blessed
By Iron and Gold
It's why I carry on
Through world so cold

[Delta Slide Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Iron and Gold
Shelter and Light
It's the promise in your heart
To walk a path that's right
Iron and Gold
Loyalty and Love
Oh please guide my way
Lantern from above

[Chorus]
Iron and Gold
Shelter and Light
It's the promise in your heart
To walk a path that's right
Iron and Gold
Loyalty and Love
Oh please guide my way
Lantern from above

Hollow Creek tells the tale of a Georgia soldier who returns from war a changed man. Desperate to set things right in his home of Hollow Creek, he seeks the aid of an old blind blues man that carries a mystical lantern.

CONTENT WARNING: The themes of this album explore tragedy, PTSD, trauma, violence, death and grief.

Hollow Creek has a significant shift in musical styles compared to other music on the channel, focusing on the music of the post-Civil War American South exploring Folk, Bluegrass, Banjo-driven ballads, and various forms of blues. While there'll still be a touch of the rock and metal influence throughout, the album will have a decidedly more mellow and somber tone to match the story it tells.
