Key Beneath Your Tongue

كلمات الأغنية

[Verse 1] You keep the key beneath your tongue A little iron, warm and numb The chapel doors are bolted tight But something counts us through the night [Pre-Chorus] You say the walls are holding fast I hear the hinges turning back [Chorus] Come closer, let the cold in Your name is written on my skin We stand where all the old vows end You break the lock, I break again [Verse 2] The clock has stopped at half past two Dust settles softly over you I take your hand; the metal shakes One small promise, one mistake [Pre-Chorus] You say the walls are holding fast I hear the hinges turning back [Chorus] Come closer, let the cold in Your name is written on my skin We stand where all the old vows end You break the lock, I break again [Bridge] No saints to call, no door to find Just your pulse answering mine If we go down, we go as one Until the final circuit’s done [Final Chorus] Come closer, let the cold in Your name is written on my skin We stand where all the old vows end You break the lock, I break again [Outro] You keep the key beneath your tongue The iron cools; the night goes on
