The Hand on the Hidden Latch

كلمات الأغنية

[Intro] Keep the door on the chain. Let the room learn my name. [Verse 1] Your silver ring on the porcelain sink, A little moon that refuses to blink. You said the house could swallow the past; I heard the pipes count seconds too fast. [Pre-Chorus] Come closer, tell me what you came to take. I know the sound a promise makes when it starts to break. [Chorus] I am the hand on the hidden latch, The cold, clear answer you cannot catch. You call me back when the walls turn strange; I let you in, but I never change. [Verse 2] Black water trembles in the stairwell glass, Your careful footsteps arrive, then pass. I leave one lamp in the eastern room, A small instruction against the gloom. [Pre-Chorus] Come closer, tell me what you came to take. I know the sound a promise makes when it starts to break. [Chorus] I am the hand on the hidden latch, The cold, clear answer you cannot catch. You call me back when the walls turn strange; I let you in, but I never change. [Bridge] No key fits the shape of this. No mouth can undo the kiss. You stand where the hallway ends; I decide who the dark befriends. [Final Chorus] I am the hand on the hidden latch, The cold, clear answer you cannot catch. You call me back when the walls turn strange; I let you in, but I never change. [Outro] Keep the door on the chain. Let the room learn my name.
