salt in the wood
Salt in the wood smoke in the skies
Giving my all for a glimpse at your eyes
You know we're wasting both of our lives and
They're finding it harder to sympathize
Something lost fades along with the Mist
You told yourself be you that I kiss
No you're just a box to check off of my list
But with one final word held my heart in a fist
I protest in the smallest ways
Against the turning of the waves
And still you take my heart to save
And still you take and still you take
The dumbest wars aren't hard to forgive
Fights over liquor are the first ones to give
But you dictate the all of how I can live
And you hold my hair back with another what if
Nothing as grand as a moment in time
Taking your hand when I think you'll take mine
Pictures don't change they're what's left behind
And it's more than nostalgia I'm coming to find
I protest in the smallest ways
Against the turning of the waves
And still, you take my heart to save
And still, you take and still you take
Summers will end as they often do
I'll stamp my letter with a picture of you
You weren't meant to be you were meant to go through
But hindsight is clear you were all that I knew
I'm years ahead I'm years away
I think I'm past but then I say
And still you take my heart to save
And still you take and still you take
Giving my all for a glimpse at your eyes
You know we're wasting both of our lives and
They're finding it harder to sympathize
Something lost fades along with the Mist
You told yourself be you that I kiss
No you're just a box to check off of my list
But with one final word held my heart in a fist
I protest in the smallest ways
Against the turning of the waves
And still you take my heart to save
And still you take and still you take
The dumbest wars aren't hard to forgive
Fights over liquor are the first ones to give
But you dictate the all of how I can live
And you hold my hair back with another what if
Nothing as grand as a moment in time
Taking your hand when I think you'll take mine
Pictures don't change they're what's left behind
And it's more than nostalgia I'm coming to find
I protest in the smallest ways
Against the turning of the waves
And still, you take my heart to save
And still, you take and still you take
Summers will end as they often do
I'll stamp my letter with a picture of you
You weren't meant to be you were meant to go through
But hindsight is clear you were all that I knew
I'm years ahead I'm years away
I think I'm past but then I say
And still you take my heart to save
And still you take and still you take
