Pillar of Salt

Light enters my life
And with the sun comes
Another newfound love
Sent from up above

I broke my body for you
I plowed this earth to show you
I've built a life that you could effortlessly fall right into

Be sure I know you don't need me
And I don't need you
Formalities moved out the way
We escape

And I serpentine between the laws you've been holding
So close to your soul
I can't conceive
So if you please, console me
Empty vessel on the bedside table
Breeds tongue tied cries of bitter exalt
So lost and unfaithful
We will dissolve in a pillar of salt
When the sunlight comes

We trade shallow motives in for lingering emotions
In dimly lit cell, mistake first dates for devotion

I'll let you know what I want
And you want me to change your mind
So troubled not to break your own rules
Yet here you are leaving them behind

All I feel is
All you feel is
All that exists
Is this

I serpentine between the laws you've been holding
So close to your soul
I can't conceive
So if you please, console me
Empty vessel on the bedside table
Breeds tongue tied cries of bitter exalt
So lost and unfaithful
We will dissolve in a pillar of salt
When the sunlight comes
Comes
