On the Beach of Witches (v.2)

[Verse 1]
Black salt on my tongue
Ash in my hair
Footprints glowing faint and blue
On a shoreline made of prayer
You rise from the foam
Ropes around your wrists
Carry little ghosts like lanterns
Swinging in the mist

[Chorus]
We meet on the beach of witches
Where the dead ones learn to breathe
Where the oceans turn like pages
Of the book we never leave
Tie my name to your broken tether
Let the tide decide our speech
If the world must end forever
Let it end
(on the beach)

[Verse 2]
Sky stitched with crows
Storm stitched with bone
You ask which world I walk for
I say none
I say “home”
You pour out the stars
From a cracked canteen
Wash my scars with midnight oil
Till they almost gleam

[Chorus]
We meet on the beach of witches
Where the dead ones learn to breathe
Where the oceans turn like pages
Of the book we never leave
Tie my name to your broken tether
Let the tide decide our speech
If the world must end forever
Let it end
(on the beach, on the beach)

[Bridge]
Every footprint
Fades as we look back
Every promise
Frays into the black
Will you follow
When the waves all freeze?
I will wait there
Kneeling in the keys

[Chorus]
We meet on the beach of witches
Where the lost ones choose to stay
Where the water keeps our secrets
Till the final strand decays
Tie my soul to your fragile tether
Let the tide rewrite the breach
If the world must end together
Let it end
(on the beach, on the beach)
(let it end on the beach)
