Souls of Salt

If tears could only smile
I might see their personalities
they would show themselves to me
before they fall fast and deep

souls of salt
they lay to rest
for here is the place they choose to die
one by one
I watch them go
I watch them go

There a mystery
Only they can explain in their short lives
In the evening is when you can see
the salt tracks left by these water lines

It’s impossible to hide
Once you’ve seen
the evidence of their short lives

souls of salt
they lay to rest
for here is the place they choose to die
one by one
I watch them go
I watch them go

I’m here for you
When you call on me
I’ll come when its time
Tears have a hold on me
I can still feel something of myself
