Salt

歌詞

See all the loners spinning towards the heavens the steeplechasers got us looking for the moon And in this heaven the horror of its absence has me trembling beside myself beside you when tears stained my cheeks you kissed all but the salt I suppose you didn’t see —I can’t fault you for that; when your tongue licked the lash all the salt had seeped through and you would not believe I’d been crying over you some days I’m afraid I’m already mourning already mourning you some nights I’m convinced I’m already dead in your arms I understand all at once my life has been building me up to us in your hands I am mine, you take me to myself the tenses I knew now they bring me to you I am yours I am yours you are my own one kiss sucks the mud clear from my soul the neon lights that fill your eye above coney island I could die tonight if I’m not already dead, already mourning when tears stained my cheeks you kissed all but the salt when your tongue licked the lash all the salt had seeped through am I already mourning you?
