Witches Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Stave it off, don't let it get away
The hold you had was ironclad, don't sway
You take it just like a man, babe
Scathing at the first sight of pain
A link in that old chain
[Chorus 1]
Marlee's in the back just trying to maintain
Her wind on the weather vane
There's nothing here to gain
But if you wanna buy a round, we might hang out
Give us all something to talk about
[Verse 2]
The myth won't love you like no other babe
The myth will always be fair weather, babe
We do stupid things in the right way
Spineless at abandon in vain
A link in that old chain
[Chorus 2]
Lindsey's giving me a little faith about
What tomorrow might bring
There's nothing here to gain
Allison always had a heavy disdain
For every link in that old chain, chain, chain
Ooooh
[Outro]
You can't bluff or outsmart
All reasons fall apart
Yeah, the myth without struggle, babe
It can't fill your heart
