Letra Witch dance Florence And The Machine

Witch dance

Open my legs, lied down with death
We kissed, we sire, we sweat
His black baby mouth stains my night gown
I clean clothes
Wrap my legs around and it tastes like life
I twist, I fight
The foxes shatter in the night

Show me the way
This feeling leaves the ick, the kick, the need
Show me the way
This feeling leaves the ick, the kick, the need

A shimmering landscape
And widen my eyes, can't keep all this beauty
Forever inside?
I tear off my nightgown and run naked through the town
Went through rain, went through fog
Taking clumps of issue, cats and dogs, and things that cannot speak

Ran to the ancestral plane
But they all showed drunk and insane
When I asked what I could offer them
They said, "Gin and tonic or [?]"
They asked, "Which way should I go?" those cigarette-smoke faced child
How would we know?

Show me the way
This feeling leaves the ick, the kick, the need
Show me the way
This feeling leaves the ick, the kick, the need

'Cause I'm beyond reason
The way in the stage
A stranger came to my door
I welcomed him there
My freedom, I need it
I cannot stop, I am many, many miles
Yet to cross

I came to a clearing
Full of wane and peeling
A well of tears that never runs dry
When it's said, we been waiting
Waiting to meet you, it's only a matter of time
Thrust my fists in the ground
And the Earth made a morning sound
(Oh, oh)
I could feel something shudder
Deeper and deeper down

And I met every monster form the bar to Broadway
And all their violent offers, I just turned them down
And your threats and your promises didn't scare me
After all, there's no better, more monstrous than me
(Woo)
Than me
