Lyrics
[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]
