[Verse 1] Tail lights dying in the rain Blacktop split by a white bone chain Two men roll with a trunk full of ash Map creased up, gas gauge past half Salt in the pocket, blade on the hip Every cheap motel got a ghost in it Babies cry when the room goes cold Something in the walls wants blood, not gold I seen the marks, I seen the grin Door chains shake when the dark steps in [Pre-Chorus] Say the word Draw the ring Hold your nerve Hear it sing When the glass starts crawling And the ceiling bends We don’t run We hunt again [Chorus] Keep the ring tight (keep it tight) Burn the night (burn the night) Hell comes near (hell comes near) We don’t hide (we don’t hide) Keep the ring tight (keep it tight) Say it loud (say it loud) We came for the dead And the cursed won’t crawl us down [Verse 2] Blood on the floor from a body gone wrong Old hymn tape hissin’ through the speaker all night long Angel with a halo cracked like a lie Demon in the mirror with a holy-dry eye You can hear the town when it starts to pray But the prayers hit hard in a crooked way Brother at my back with the same old stare One more hunt, one more scar to wear If the devil wants smoke, let him take this fade We been forged in the fire that the graveyard made [Pre-Chorus] Say the word Draw the ring Hold your nerve Hear it sing When the dead start calling And the porch lights dim We don’t fold We go in [Chorus] Keep the ring tight (keep it tight) Burn the night (burn the night) Hell comes near (hell comes near) We don’t hide (we don’t hide) Keep the ring tight (keep it tight) Say it loud (say it loud) We came for the dead And the cursed won’t crawl us down [Bridge] [Half-time break] I know the shape in the doorway I know the name it wears I know the sound of a promise Rattling through the stairs If I go down, let me go swingin’ If I go blind, let me still believe One spark left in the dark And that’s enough for me [Final Chorus] Keep the ring tight (keep it tight) Burn the night (burn the night) Hell comes near (hell comes near) We don’t hide (we don’t hide) Keep the ring tight (keep it tight) Say it loud (say it loud) We came for the dead And the cursed won’t crawl us down Keep the ring tight (keep it tight) Burn the night (burn the night) Two men, one road And the dead all back away
