Ghosts - White Fox Society

I wish I knew the bite before howling at your door

I wish I knew the claws before settling the score

Covered bodies under rocks and drowned under the docks

Blood under your nails remove the keys from every lock

We can take as long to reach the bottom, we can take as long to swoon

I know a promised to stand strong under full moon

We sang ourselves to sleep with forked tongues

We sang ourselves to sleep

Ghosts too heavy for my hands, I’m seeing red

By everything we’ve said and you’ve let go

Ghosts too heavy for my hands, I’m seeing red

I’m seeing red and you’ve let go

We drank from the same cup but only turned just one of us

Broke trust, felt lust, grinding old bones into the dust

I wish I could’ve kept you safe I was scared, scarred and unprepared

For what is done to you you transformed and I just stared

We can take as long to reach the bottom, we can take as long to swoon

I know a promised to stand strong under full moon

We sang ourselves to sleep with forked tongues

We sang ourselves to sleep

Ghosts too heavy for my hands, I’m seeing red

By everything we’ve said and you’ve let go

Ghosts too heavy for my hands, I’m seeing red

I’m seeing red and you’ve let go

Bright stars and dark holes crawl into new life

Can’t turn a banshee into a bride a wolf into a wife

Shape-shift, change place, fangs out, unsafe, grow wings, take flight

Crush everything in sight

Ghosts too heavy for my hands, I’m seeing red

By everything we’ve said and you’ve let go

Ghosts too heavy for my hands, I’m seeing red

I’m seeing red and you’ve let go

Shape-shift, change place, fangs out, unsafe, grow wings, take flight

Crush everything in sight
