Buried Names

เนื้อเพลง

[Verse 1] You left the brass key under the stair Beside the ledger nobody keeps A circle drawn where the dust lies bare And seven names folded in deep [Pre-Chorus] At the ninth bell, turn the page Hold your breath and speak the phrase [Chorus] We meet where the old maps end No face revealed, no oath unwound By candle mark and clasped right hand We keep the buried names underground [Verse 2] Your mother’s ring was passed to me Its inner edge cut with a sign We trade no promises carelessly We guard the door between the lines [Pre-Chorus] At the ninth bell, turn the page Hold your breath and speak the phrase [Chorus] We meet where the old maps end No face revealed, no oath unwound By candle mark and clasped right hand We keep the buried names underground [Bridge] If one of us is called away The others take the same old road No record says what we obey No witness knows what we were told [Final Chorus] We meet where the old maps end No face revealed, no oath unwound By candle mark and clasped right hand We keep the buried names underground [Outro] Seven names folded in deep The key returns beneath the stair
