Salt Water

Salt water

Tide came in and

Then went out and

Left behind in

Hollow places

Cradled once and

Cooling twice, you

Feel the sting of

Salt water

Salt water

Salt water

Wave goes back and

Leaves the sand, it's

High and barren

Dry and wasting

Cradled once and

Cooling twice, you

Feel the sting of

Salt water

Salt water

Taste this

It's really raw

It comes with the skin and the sand still on it

And it comes with the shell and the flesh within it

You can tell that it came from a seedy and watery place

Taste this

It's really good

It will make your mouth feel like something's in it

And it's gotten and given from a cold black piece of the sea

From a piece of the sea

Salt water

Salt water

Salt water

Salt water
