Salt in the Snow

Give me wings, give me peace.

These are the things that I need.

I'm tormented, broken and shamed.

Are you listening? (Are you listening?)

Give me shelter from the storm,

I know it's a lot to ask for

Considering how recent I've piled

The dirt on your name.

Are you listening? (Are you listening?)

I have heard that winter's cold

Will give way to summer's warmth, Oh no!

Like salt in the snow I'm melted

And left all alone on the side of the road.

Is this where I am for your sake,

Stuck between sleep and awake?

My mind is dreaming of things.

Are you listening? (Are you listening?)

I took you for granted again

And threw you aside and pretended

For one minute that I had control of my life

And direction it seemed to be in.

I was wrong again, (I was wrong again)

Are you listening? (Are you listening?)

I will wait for you to come again,

And I can't pretend like I'm confident

And I can't pretend like it makes much sense

When it doesn't.

I have heard that winter's cold

Will give way to summer's warmth, Oh no!

Like salt in the snow I'm melted

And left all alone on the side of the road.

On the side of the road (4x)

I have heard that winter's cold

Will give way to summer's warmth, Oh no!

Like salt in the snow I'm melted

And left all alone on the side of the road.
