'Old Gods (Theatrical Version)' Lyrics
Carry my prayers on the ocean
Carry my prayers on the sea
And if you are meant to be mine, love
One day you’ll come home to me
But are you a trick of the memory
That the old gods are playing on me
Carry my prayers on the ocean
Carry my prayers on the sea
Your blue eyes are there when I close mine
I see your sweet face when I dream
My heart is all ragged in pieces
Bleeding at every seam
But are you a trick of the memory
That the old gods are playing on me
Carry my prayers on the ocean
Carry my prayers on the sea
I’m down on my knees at a crossing
Wondering which way to go
But all roads are dark through the valley
And I’ll learn to walk them alone
But are you a trick of the memory
That the old gods are playing on me
Carry my prayers on the ocean
Carry my prayers on the sea
No wine and no song can soothe me
I’m pierced by the arrows of pain
I’ll lay in the grass by the mountain
And summon the wind and the rain
But are you a trick of the memory
That the old gods are playing on me
Carry my prayers on the ocean
Carry my prayers on the sea
Carry my prayers on the ocean
Carry my prayers on the sea
With a quarter million miles under her belt and counting, North Carolina native Emily Scott Robinson travels the dusty highways of America's wild country, capturing the stories of the people she meets and expertly crafting them into songs. Robinson received critical acclaim for her debut album Traveling Mercies-- Rolling Stone named it one of the “40 Best Country and Americana Albums of 2019.” In 2021, Robinson signed with Oh Boy records, the label founded by the legendary John Prine, and released her follow-up album American Siren. It made numerous “Best of 2021” lists including NPR, Rolling Stone, American Songwriter, and No Depression. In 2022, Robinson released a collaboration for theater called Built on Bones, a song cycle written for the Witches of Shakespeare's Macbeth, featuring artists Alisa Amador and Violet Bell.
