[Verse 1] I found your mark in ash Under the rotten moon Three nails in a candle stump And a name cut in half too soon Your black cat crossed my path Then watched me lose my breath You said the hedge was listening And I believed in death [Pre-Chorus] Salt on my tongue Smoke in my coat The old bones answer When you start to float [Chorus] Black salt circle Black salt circle Draw me under (black salt circle) Black salt circle Black salt circle Witch hands closer (closer, closer) [Verse 2] You stirred the jar of crows With a spoon made from bone Every prayer I knew Turned to dust in your throat I saw green fire bloom In the seam of your palm You smiled like a grave Learning how to stay calm [Pre-Chorus] Salt on my tongue Smoke in my coat The old bones answer When you start to float [Chorus] Black salt circle Black salt circle Draw me under (black salt circle) Black salt circle Black salt circle Witch hands closer (closer, closer) [Bridge] Now the floorboards groan my name And the mirror drinks my face You can keep your holy water I was born for this place [Chorus] Black salt circle Black salt circle Draw me under (black salt circle) Black salt circle Black salt circle Witch hands closer (closer, closer)
