Lyrics

Salt Wound

I was thinking that
You would stay the day
Something tells me that
You'll show up to say

Bye
Good
Bye

Salt wound
Too soon

If I push, you're gone
You'd just let it stand
Your brain's a splendid one
Full of rocks and sand

Grasping both confused
I couldn't love you more
Always talking me
But did she know the shore?

Bye
Good
Bye

Breathe hard
Chips start
Falling down
Head hopes
Crawling down
Please

Bye
Goodbye

Salt wound
Too soon
Falling down

Breathe hard
Crawling now
Chips fall
Splits too deep

Head hopes
Bye goodbye
Please
