歌词
[Intro] [Verse] Silk ribbons fray in the brine Silver spoons taste like copper wine Dust on the grand piano keys I’m down here on my knees Watching the tides erase the line Where the ghosts and the living intertwine [Pre-Chorus] The bells ring slow in the steeple I hate the smell of the people Who come to stare at the rot At everything that I’m not [Chorus] Deep in the blue of the basin There’s a face that I’m chasing Glint of gold in the black I’m never coming back Sinking in velvet and salt It wasn’t my fault But I’ll pay the price anyway In the cold light of day [Post-Chorus] Pull me down, pull me under Hear the silence, feel the thunder Icing over, turning cold Everything glitters like gold [Verse] The locket caught on a jagged reef A tiny cage for a massive grief Your eyes are clouded by the silt Buried under layers of family guilt I hear the baritone guitar hum Waiting for the vengeance to come [Pre-Chorus] The cliffside is starting to crumble I watch the foundations tumble Into the mouth of the bay Wash the inheritance away [Chorus] Deep in the blue of the basin There’s a face that I’m chasing Glint of gold in the black I’m never coming back Sinking in velvet and salt It wasn’t my fault But I’ll pay the price anyway In the cold light of day [Bridge] The sub-bass rattles my bones I’m building a kingdom of stones One for the father, one for the son Look at the damage we’ve done The church bells are tolling for me Dragging the house to the sea I’m the heir to the wreck With your ghost round my neck [Instrumental] [Chorus] Deep in the blue of the basin There’s a face that I’m chasing Glint of gold in the black I’m never coming back Sinking in velvet and salt It wasn’t my fault But I’ll pay the price anyway In the cold light of day [Hook] Icy composure Simmering menace I’m the ghost in the palace Drink from the chalice [Outro]
