[Verse 1] You found a key in the ash Small as a nail Turned it once in the lock And the whole room knelt A paper crown on your head Thin as smoke But the mirror bowed low When you spoke [Chorus] One small throne One small flame You smile when they flinch You smile when they bend One small throne One small flame A little weight in your hand And your pulse turns gold [Verse 2] You keep a moth in a jar Feed it the dark Watch it circle your thumb Till it learns the shape And every tiny obey Feels like rain On a dry cracked tongue Calling your name [Chorus] One small throne One small flame You smile when they flinch You smile when they bend One small throne One small flame A little weight in your hand And your pulse turns gold
