Lyrics
Salty Words
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The bricks in the floor make your boots sound so loud
And you keep your head down like you're carryin' a cloud
Of remorse and pity and doubt, but you act so proud
Of your vows, when there's nothin' to them
And it's still a wonder how we ever met
But it's not that I'll ever have any regret
Oh, I don't know how hard this is gonna get
I guess nobody ever said it was easy
And I don't know what to do
Oh, I don't know what to say
When you're at this way, that's a game I'm not about to play
Oh, I don't know what to say
And speaking salty words won't do it any good
'Cause so much between us is misunderstood
The words don't make a sound
To anyone who's falling, now fall down
And it's too bad you're not the busted and broken screen
Yeah, money has a way of destroying those things
It's time you step away and look inside your ring of friends
And stand outside the scene
If it remains a challenge for you to catch my drift
Well, I'm afraid the fog from your eyes is gonna be too heavy to lift
Oh, I thought you had a gift, yeah, I thought you had a gift
But I was wrong
And I don't know what to do
No, I don't know what to say
When you're at this way, that's a game I'm not about to play
Oh, I don't know what to say
And speaking salty words won't do it any good
'Cause so much between us is misunderstood
The words don't make a sound
To anyone who's falling, now fall down
