Salt and Spectral Fire

[Intro]
[Verse]
Iron hinges groan
I am here alone
Rain strikes the pane
Like a heavy chain
The lantern spins round
Above the dark ground
[Pre-Chorus]
The waterphone sings
Of the secrets it brings
A shadow appears
Through the salt of my tears
[Chorus]
Oh, Captain of the ghost ship
With the winter on your lip
The storm is our stage
The end of an age
I see your pale hand
Reaching for land
The tide pulls you back
Into the black
[Verse]
Your coat is a shroud
In a thunderous cloud
You look at the light
Through the teeth of the night
We loved in the sun
Before we were undone
[Pre-Chorus]
The waterphone sings
Of the secrets it brings
A shadow appears
Through the salt of my tears
[Chorus]
Oh, Captain of the ghost ship
With the winter on your lip
The storm is our stage
The end of an age
I see your pale hand
Reaching for land
The tide pulls you back
Into the black
[Bridge]
Taiko drums rise
Under hollow skies
The synth cellos weep
From the canyons of sleep
The horizon is torn
Where the chaos is born
[Build-up]
Hold on to the flame
I whisper your name
One final breath
Defying our death
[Chorus]
Now the clouds break apart
In the beat of my heart
The anchor is free
From the weight of the sea
Go find your rest
In the glow of the west
The gold meets the blue
I'm letting go of you
[Post-Chorus]
The waves are so still
On the side of the hill
The morning is bright
With a different light
[Outro]
