Salt

I tried to take it with a grain of salt
But the lid came off
Tables turning like the serpents sold to suckers
In the synagogue

You rented space inside my head
Then changed the locks before you left
I couldn't fill it for so long
You'd rather swim than take the bait
I used to think that that was wrong

Stay with me 'til I stop screaming
I swear, I'm almost done
Follow me 'til I quit breathing
Then shoot my body into the sun

It took us years to make the engine start
Then the wheels came off
Highway raging, as you vacantly persuade me
To count it as a loss

You ran my race 'til your legs convinced you there was nothing left
I never thought to look and see
You always longed for something more
I never dreamed that wasn't me

So stay with me 'til I stop screaming
I swear, I'm almost done
Follow me 'til I quit breathing
Then shoot my body into the sun

Stay with me 'til I stop screaming
I swear, I'm almost done
Follow me 'til I quit breathing
Then shoot my body into the sun
