about

This song is for the Neskowin Ghost Forest, a petrified forest of about 100 trees that slid into the ocean, probably during an earthquake. This event was estimated to have happened in the 1800's. The trees remained completely submerged until the early 2000's.

lyrics

Sentinels rise from the ocean
We watch with remembering eyes
Still we stand, long forgotten cathedrals
Rising up from the sands of time

Majestic and mighty the Evergreen
Life long past now frozen in stone
Voice of the wind rising
Ghost in the forest, branches of bone

What lives on in the ghost of the forest
When all is stripped to bone
What stories long forgotten
Longing to be known

Our silence eternal, our stories unspoken
Washed away on the turbulent tides
Our secrets lie safe in the depths of the ocean
Pearls of wisdom lost to time

Majestic and mighty the Evergreen
Life long past now frozen in stone
Voice of the wind rising
Ghost in the forest, branches of bone

What lives on in the ghost of the forest
When all is stripped to bone
What stories long forgotten
Longing to be known
