Crimson Key

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I found you by the crypt door Rain on your lace, and nothing more Your pale hand trembled in the torch glow Like you knew the name I shouldn't know Your eyes held dusk Your mouth held fire You smiled like a wound And called me higher [Pre-Chorus] Say my name in the black Pull me under, bring me back If I'm cursed, let it show If I'm yours, then let me go [Chorus] Crimson key, open me (come close, come close) Crimson key, set me free (bite my heart, bite my heart) If I bleed, let it be For the one who walks with me Crimson key, open me (open me, open me) [Verse 2] We met where the candles died In a chapel with a broken bride You kissed the scar beneath my jaw Like you were praying to a law I wore your shadow You wore my ring We stole our names From the winter king [Pre-Chorus] Say my name in the black Pull me under, bring me back If I'm cursed, let it show If I'm yours, then let me go [Chorus] Crimson key, open me (come close, come close) Crimson key, set me free (bite my heart, bite my heart) If I bleed, let it be For the one who walks with me Crimson key, open me (open me, open me) [Bridge] [Breakdown] Now the saints are silent And the graves lean in I don't fear the dark I fear the end of this skin If dawn comes cruel And tears us apart I'll keep your cold name Beating under my heart [Final Chorus] Crimson key, open me (come close, come close) Crimson key, set me free (bite my heart, bite my heart) If I bleed, let it be For the one who walks with me Crimson key, open me (open me, open me) Crimson key, stay with me (stay with me, stay with me) Crimson key, bury me (if you go, if you go) In your night, I will keep Every vow you gave to me Crimson key, stay with me (stay with me, stay with me)
