Verse 1 Salt on my skin, blood in the wake, Every vow I ever made I learned to break, The horizon’s lying, the stars don’t guide, Only the storm knows what I hide. You walk like fire on a moving deck, Eyes like you’ve already placed your bets, I was built for the undertow, But you were never meant to let me go. Pre-Chorus I’ve burned for kings, I’ve drowned for crowns, I’ve knelt to storms that wore me down, But you look at me like I’m still alive. Chorus So burn the tide, let the ocean bleed, I’ll break the world if it sets you free, Let the waves remember what we are, Fire and storm and falling stars, If loving you is how I die — Then burn the tide. Verse 2 You speak like war wrapped in silk and flame, Every truth wearing a different name, I’ve sworn allegiance to the dark, But you lit me like a match in my heart. I don’t believe in mercy anymore, I believe in what I’d kill for, And I would drown every god alive If they told me I can’t have you tonight. Pre-Chorus They taught me love was a weakness worn, But you made it a blade I was born to hold. Chorus So burn the tide, let the ocean bleed, I’ll break the world if it sets you free, Let the waves remember what we are, Fire and storm and falling stars, If loving you is how I die — Then burn the tide. Bridge We are not safe. We are not kind. We are the end of every line. We are the myth they tried to drown, We are the crown they burned down. Say my name like it’s a sin, Say my name and I’ll begin. Final Chorus Burn the tide, I’m already gone, Every rule I loved is torn, Let the sea learn how to kneel, Let the storm remember what we feel, If loving you is how I rise — Then burn the tide. Outro Salt, fire, bone, and sky… I was never meant to survive. I was meant to love you in the fall of time. Burn the tide.
