Cathedral of Rust

Lyrics

[Intro] Cold iron under the chapel floor Something counts behind the door [Verse 1] You found the mark beneath the paint A crooked mouth, a body faint The hallway bends, the candles drown Every locked room opens down [Pre-Chorus] Don't turn the key Don't call my name The walls have learned To wear your face [Chorus] Run from the room that remembers you Run from the hands in the plaster too When the black bell rings, let the whole house shake No prayer survives what the buried wake [Verse 2] A film of dust across the stairs Wet fingerprints ascend in pairs Your brother's coat hangs by the grate Still warm inside, though he left late [Pre-Chorus] Don't turn the key Don't call my name The walls have learned To wear your face [Chorus] Run from the room that remembers you Run from the hands in the plaster too When the black bell rings, let the whole house shake No prayer survives what the buried wake [Bridge] Beneath the stone Beneath the well A second heartbeat Rings the bell Cut every wire Break every chain The house is hungry Feed it your name [Breakdown] Open the door Let it in Open the door Begin again [Final Chorus] Run from the room that remembers you Run from the hands in the plaster too When the black bell rings, let the whole house shake No prayer survives what the buried wake [Outro] Cold iron under the chapel floor Now something counts outside your door
