Winter's Veil from Pagan Christmas by Darkwave Hex
Mystery shrouds the season in this ethereal exploration of winter as sacred concealment. Vocals emerge from and disappear into atmospheric production, celebrating the pagan understanding that winter's darkness is the earth's veil a necessary covering that protects seeds sleeping underground, magic gestating unseen, life resting before its explosive spring return. The track honors traditions that saw winter not as death but as incubation, the veiled time when the goddess dreams the world back into being. Sleigh bells chime like ice crystals on the veil's edge, and the lofi warmth suggests the life hiding just beneath winter's shroud, waiting.

Lyrics
The apple bows
They sag with frost
Whispering tales of what we've lost
A cider flame
It warms the night
A pagan hymn in pale moonlight
Drink deep
Drink slow
The winter knows
Sing soft
Sing low
Where the cold wind blows
Through the veil
Through the veil
Our spirits sail
The embers dance
The shadows creep
Through hollow woods
The echoes weep
Beneath the boughs
The wassail calls
A ritual rise as the snowflake falls
Raise the cup
Let the harvest keep
Wake the orchard
Stir its sleep
Drink deep
Drink slow
The winter knows
Sing soft
Sing low
Where the cold wind blows
Through the veil
Through the veil
Our spirits sail
Lanterns swing like ghostly hands
Marking time in shifting sands
A circle drawn
A promise made
Through the mist
The echoes fade
