[Verse 1] I kept the key For a door I burned Black salt on my tongue And lessons unlearned I watched your name In a cracked mirror frame It moved like smoke Then it said my shame [Pre-Chorus] I fed the moon My quiet lies It lit the room Then cut my eyes [Chorus] Come back, come back To the black salt window I touched the glass And it cut me slow Come back, come back I was wrong, I know I held the dark Till it let you go [Verse 2] Your dress on the chair Like a flag at war I walked past it And I asked for more There’s a wolf in my chest With your ring in its jaw It lives on the things I could never repair [Pre-Chorus] I heard the stairs Like a second chance But I let it pass With a bloodless hand [Chorus] Come back, come back To the black salt window I touched the glass And it cut me slow Come back, come back I was wrong, I know I held the dark Till it let you go [Bridge] If mercy has bones It broke in me first If love was a lake I drank from the curse Now the room wears me Like a borrowed face And every soft truth Has your shape in place [Final Chorus] Come back, come back To the black salt window I touched the glass And it cut me slow Come back, come back I was wrong, I know I held the dark Till it let you go Come back, come back I still feel that glow Your ghost in my hands And the rain below
