salt heart

ooh baby
how you fell back
into the old swing of things
i had hardly noticed
an absence, a sinking

i knew i couldn't be
there for you
in your time of need
i hardly felt at fault
my heart
was all

torn up
and like a run down
old building, i'm still standing
while your heat is here
to conquer
i will take thee
opportunity

i knew i couldn't be
there for you
in your time of need
i hardly felt at fault
my heart
of salt
