Witching Season

verse 1:

punch me ‘till I’m black and blue

then hold me close and kiss the bruise

you always had a way of losing me, then calming me down

wipe the tears off of my cheekbone

told me “babe, it isn’t lethal”

was I more than just a temptress to your solemn vow?

pre-chorus:

so I bite my nails and pray for silence

and I hate it when the full moon rises

never thought you could be so unholy

and I’m paranoid you still control me

chorus:

you were what I once believed in

just a victim to your scheming

ripped the Band-Aid off of me

and now I’m bleeding, baby

build me up to let me down

lit the fire, burn me out

can’t pretend to know the reason

guess it’s witching season

verse 2:

there are some things I didn’t know

like there was witchcraft in your bones

you played it off like magic then lit the torch and puffed the smoke

I wish someone could’ve warned me

You’re the hoax in every story

Didn’t know I was the show, you were performing

pre-chorus:

So I bite my nails and pray for silecnce

And I hate it when the full moon rises

chorus:

you were what I once believed in

just a victim to your scheming

ripped the Band-Aid off of me

and now I’m bleeding, baby

build me up to let me down

lit the fire, burn me out

can’t pretend to know the reason

guess it’s witching season

bridge:

so I’ll light up the candle and chant to the moon

and hope that this ritual can rid me of you

all the jokers and card tricks

a slave to your magic

I hope I’m enough witch to wish you to ashes

so I’ll light up the candle and chant at the moon

and hope that this ritual can rid me of you

all the jokers and card tricks

a slave to your magic

I hope I’m enough witch to wish you to ashes
