Salty Sweet

Face-first in the sand
Got a mouthful of sharks teeth
Every shell on this beach is
Broken just like me—
Feels like I'm stuck underwater but
Still tryin to breathe
Waters too calm
Just waiting on a riptide
Carry me out so I
Float here until I die

Till I wake up and
Find myself a new life
Or break into the next one with a
Three foot nose dive—

I'm just tryin to be honest here
Reflecting on the boat
Wish I could be present here
Sun red-hot on my nose
I hope it burns
I hope we sink
Am I too high?
Or is it high seas?
Was this too honest?
Do you still like me?
(Oh no)
I shoulda stayed quiet
I shoulda stayed sweet

Swimming with fish underwater
Life like a movie scene
Rings of colors and corals are
Dying all around me—
I'd live in this bubble but there's
Not enough air to breathe
(breathe—)
Waters too rough
Think I'm in a riptide
Divin' right in
Reaching for another side

Now I repent
Holy water shoreline
Salt water heals when it
Stings your body just right—

I'm just tryin to be honest here
Reflecting on the boat
Wish I could be present here
Sun red-hot on my nose
I hope it burns
I hope we sink
Am I too high?
Or is it high seas?
Was this too honest?
Do you still like me?
(oh no)
I shoulda stayed quiet
I shoulda stayed—

(Instrumental)

I try to drink so
That I can forget
So then
I won't care anymore—
But now I'm wasted
Got a little faded
Now I'm stumbling
Down the shore—
Salt on the rim
And sand on the floor
Deeper till the ocean's a door
I shoulda stayed—
I should stayed
Shoulda stayed quiet
Shoulda stayed sweet
I shoulda stayed
I shoulda stayed
I shoulda stayed—
I shoulda stayed

I'm just tryin to be honest here
Reflecting on the boat
Wish I could be present here
Sun red-hot on my nose
I hope it burns
I hope we sink—
Am I too high?
Or is it high seas?
Was this too honest?
Do you still like me?
I shoulda stayed quiet
I shoulda stayed—
Sweet
(Oh no)
I should stayed
I shoulda stayed—
