Salt and Iron

[Intro]
[Verse]
Salt on the window pane
Rust in my golden vein
Waiting for the ghost of you
To tell me what is true
The tide is pulling low
With nowhere left to go
I’m pacing on the floor
Behind a locked-up door
[Pre-Chorus]
You swore upon the deep
A promise you couldn't keep
Now the fog is rolling in
Underneath my shivering skin
I feel the pressure rise
Looking through your hollow eyes
[Chorus]
Let the ocean take the light
I am burning down the night
Crashing on the rotting floor
I don't need you anymore
Through the spray and through the stone
I will claim this wreck alone
Let the thunder start to roll
I am taking back my soul
[Post-Chorus]
Burn it down
Watch me drown
Turn the wheel
Cold as steel
[Verse]
Copper taste of old regret
Things I haven't finished yet
The spiral stairs are thin
Let the freezing water in
The brass begins to scream
Waking from a dead man's dream
I see the timber split
And I’m the one who lit the kit
[Pre-Chorus]
You swore upon the deep
A promise you couldn't keep
Now the fog is rolling in
Underneath my shivering skin
I feel the pressure rise
Looking through your hollow eyes
[Chorus]
Let the ocean take the light
I am burning down the night
Crashing on the rotting floor
I don't need you anymore
Through the spray and through the stone
I will claim this wreck alone
Let the thunder start to roll
I am taking back my soul
[Bridge]
I am the storm
I am the cold
Breaking the skin
Of the lies you told
(Howl)
Break the beam
End the dream
Kill the spark
In the dark
I am louder than the gale
Watch the ghost begin to fail
[Hook]
Salt and iron
Heart of a lion
Salt and iron
No more crying
[Chorus]
Let the ocean take the light
I am burning down the night
Crashing on the rotting floor
I don't need you anymore
Through the spray and through the stone
I will claim this wreck alone
Let the thunder start to roll
I am taking back my soul
[Post-Chorus]
Burn it down
Watch me drown
Turn the wheel
Cold as steel
[Outro]
