November Glass

[Intro]
[Verse]
Salt air eats the iron gate
November wind is running late
Frayed wool around my thumb
Waiting for the heat to come
Twenty-eight years in the cold
Watching the grey waves unfold
[Pre-Chorus]
The light spins a circle of gold
A story that's already told
The glass has a jagged new crack
And I know you aren't coming back
[Chorus]
Burn the signal bright
Into the hollow night
The cedar box is locked
While the heavy boat is docked
I'm screaming at the tide
With nowhere left to hide
The ocean is a grave
For everything I couldn't save
[Verse]
Blinking red on the black
Ink on the paper turns slack
Sunken letters in the wood
I would burn them if I could
The buoy is a lonely sound
Where the heavy secrets drowned
[Pre-Chorus]
The light spins a circle of gold
A story that's already told
The glass has a jagged new crack
And I know you aren't coming back
[Chorus]
Burn the signal bright
Into the hollow night
The cedar box is locked
While the heavy boat is docked
I'm screaming at the tide
With nowhere left to hide
The ocean is a grave
For everything I couldn't save
[Bridge]
The piano keys are cold
Like the stories left untold
The waves are whispering your name
But the sea is never tame
The cedar box is heavy lead
For all the words I never said
Rest your head
[Build-up]
Can you hear the sound?
Feet above the ground
The pulse begins to rise
Underneath the frozen skies
[Chorus]
Burn the signal bright
Into the hollow night
The cedar box is locked
While the heavy boat is docked
I'm screaming at the tide
With nowhere left to hide
The ocean is a grave
For everything I couldn't save
[Post-Chorus]
It is done
We have won
The silence is the ghost
On the edge of the coast
[Outro]
