luigi saracino & guy maisonneuve - salt of the earth lyrics

Loading...

salt of the earth

we’ve come to the end, but the earth keeps on turning

in all that you’ve said is a lesson worth learning

but if words are just words, they’re less so when confusing

then like clouds of birds, i spent seasons yearning

but the last thing i’d heard we weren’t entertaining

my falling apart and your just up and leaving

salt’s good for the nerves, but these seas that i’m bleeding

drove home the point, some looks are deceiving

all that aside, there’s days i’m just faking

and it’s no surprise these pills i’ve been taking

won’t help galvanize the reasons i’m shaken

so i must resign with some consternation

to your not naming-names while i named constellations

and wore the shape of the world, lost in it’s quiet rotation

so for bad or good, looks like the shine’s off the apple

and from where i stood i could only watch us unravel

while on the way home we wondered if whether

we should take sticks-and-stones and tie them together

equal part sincere, equal part gesture

all i have learned took once once more for good measure

when there’s too much salt left in the blood
and one too many hands raised against the flood
i was sure we’d have forever
not a year less a summer’s day, and a ghost parade, that never fades

when there’s too much salt left in the blood
and one too many hands raised against the flood
i was so sure we’d have forever
what i know will remain unclear, from what i can see from here

ashes call to ashes, i was sure no one could catch us
you were fireworks in the dark, above the home inside my heart

every comet crashes, but there were no signs of disaster
for all that came and went, now swim like goldfish in my head
