Lyrics
[Verse]
Old Yia Yia in the pines
Bare feet black wine
Rust on the gate to her crooked door
Kids dare each other then run
Eyes in the jar by the stove
Bones in a bucket on the floor
[Prechorus]
They say she talks to the rain
They say your name and she knows your shame
[Chorus]
Witch in the woods
Old Yia Yia
What did you bury what did you burn
Witch in the woods
Old Yia Yia
You twist the world till the world turns
You twist the world till the world turns
[Verse 2]
She laughs at the church bell song
Holds it in her palm till it bends
Five black hens on the windowsill
Waiting for a word from her tongue
She spits in the dirt and the fever breaks
Smiles when the fever comes back again
[Prechorus]
They say she eats bad luck
They say your fear gets stuck
[Chorus]
Witch in the woods
Old Yia Yia
What did you whisper over our birth
Witch in the woods
Old Yia Yia
You shake the sky shake the earth
You shake the sky shake the earth
[Bridge]
Is it love or a curse when she calls you child
Is it mercy or a knife when she says your fate
Smoke in her hair old stories in her teeth
You knock on her door
Or you wait
[Outro]
Old Yia Yia in the pines
Fire in a chipped tin cup
She raises one dead twig hand
And every dark thing
Looks up

brooding minor-key rock built on detuned electric guitars and tom-heavy drums slow and swinging like a ritual. verses stay sparse with bass pulse and roomy vocals then choruses crash in with fuzzed power chords and gang-shouted hooks. occult textures from bowed guitar swells and reversed ambiences creep around the edges keeping it raw gritty and menacing rather than polished., rock, magical
