Teeth of the Malgrats v2

Please share with your friends. “Teeth of the Malgrats” Verse 1 Black clouds cinch the western sky Iron wind begins to scream The coast goes silent, holds its breath As daylight splits at the seam Whitecaps marching, drum on drum Salt like blood upon my tongue Those rocks don’t move, they only wait For the weak, the lost, the young Pre-Chorus Compass spins, the line goes slack Engines choke on broken prayer Every wave a loaded gun Pointed straight at nowhere Chorus Oh—Malgrats rise like broken knives Tearing holes in sea and soul Storms are crowned on limestone thrones Where mercy never grows Hear the reef howl, hear it laugh As the blackened waters swell If you cross the teeth of the Malgrats You’re crossing straight through hell Verse 2 Thunder walks the ocean floor Lightning scars the bay Ghosts of hulls and splintered names Still drifting Santa Ponça way Anchor drags, the keel complains Hands are numb, the wheel is slick Every prayer tastes just like rust Every second’s burning quick Pre-Chorus No lighthouse here, no guiding flame Just shadow cutting stone The sea remembers every debt And it’s come to collect its own Chorus Oh—Malgrats rise like broken knives Tearing holes in sea and soul Storms are crowned on limestone thrones Where mercy never grows Hear the reef howl, hear it laugh As the blackened waters swell If you cross the teeth of the Malgrats You’re crossing straight through hell Bridge (Breakdown) Stone! Salt! Wind like chains around the mast Stone! Salt! Another wave—this one’s the last The Malgrats don’t forgive or warn They just stand and watch you drown Kings of reef and wreck and bone Wearing storm clouds as a crown Solo (Guitar cuts like lightning over surf and thunder) Final Chorus Yeah—Malgrats rise like broken knives Against the dying light Sea and sky in open war No shore, no wrong, no right So sing it loud in Calvià Let the cliffs and headlands tell The sea still owns the Malgrats And the Malgrats ring the bell Outro When the storm pulls back to sea And the bay goes calm again Those rocks still breathe beneath the waves Counting ships… Counting men.
