(Reinforced Concrete Structure)

[Verse 1]
witch's bridge
standing hard in the cold
The structure is made of concrete
and the gulls circle slow

He is on Sakhalin
on the edge of the land
His shadow on the water
like a hand in the sand


[Build-up]
[Pre-Chorus]
He is on Sakhalin.


[Pre-Chorus]
He is on Sakhalin.




[Pre-Chorus]
(He is on Sakhalin)



[Pre-Chorus]
This bridge was built in the 1920s
when the world was young and steel
Every step on its long face
keeps the old years real



[Chorus]
Witch's bridge, witch's bridge
hold me up, hold me up
Fifty meters over ground
don't let the dark look up

Witch's bridge, witch's bridge
two hundred meters long
Not far from Holmsk
you can hear the wind sing strong



[Build-up]
[Pre-Chorus]
He has already been abandoned,
He has already been abandoned.



[Pre-Chorus]
He has already been abandoned.


[Pre-Chorus]
(He has already been abandone













[Verse 2]
The height above ground is 50 meters
and the drop stays in my chest
I look down through the rails
and the sea won't ever rest

Not far from the city of Holmsk
where the roads end and bend
I can feel the whole coast
leaning into the wind





[Pre-Chorus]
This bridge was built in the 1920s
when the clocks were rough and bare
Still it stands like a witness
with the salt in its hair

[Chorus]
Witch's bridge, witch's bridge
hold me up, hold me up
Fifty meters over ground
don't let the dark look up

Witch's bridge, witch's bridge
two hundred meters long
Not far from Holmsk
you can hear the wind sing strong



[Build-up]
[Pre-Chorus]
He has already been abandoned,
He has already been abandoned.



[Bridge]
If I cross it slow
I can hear the years
every bolt, every span
pulling through the years

Sakhalin below me
cold and wide and clear
and the old concrete answer
keeps me here



[Build-up]
[Pre-Chorus]
Reinforced Concrete Structure,
Reinforced Concrete Structure.



[Final Chorus]
Witch's bridge, witch's bridge
hold me up, hold me up
Fifty meters over ground
don't let the dark look up

Witch's bridge, witch's bridge
two hundred meters long
Not far from Holmsk
you can hear the wind sing strong


[Build-up]
[Pre-Chorus]
Reinforced Concrete Structure,
Reinforced Concrete Structure.


[Pre-Chorus]
Reinforced Concrete Structure.
