Scott's Metal Track of the Day - Ghost Key by Isis

Today's Metal Track is Ghost Key by Isis. This is off of their final album Wavering Radiant which was released in 2009. While the song is open for interpretation, it portrays an image of 2 people freezing to death after repeatedly trying to start a fire. As with most Isis songs, the lyrics are difficult to make out but that is by design. They have always put an emphasis on music first.

It's cold, snowing,
blue light, dusk settles.
A fire burns with failing light
against the growing darkness.

Bending over the dying flames,
you were with me then as always.
