Salt to your Sea

Let my pining take me somewhere
Where the ancient prayers once chimed
Forgive the shortcomings of a girl
That lost her way too many times

I might have run out of things to say
But my heart still knows what it wants
And it still wants you
Let my tears do the praying for me
Let them be the salt to your sea

I'd like to think that I am devoted
But I know I run away too many times
When your burning desire cracks me open
And I come apart with all of my lies

I might have run out of things to do
But my heart still knows what it wants
And it still wants you
Wash away what remains of me
Let me be the salt to your sea

I stood lamenting to the ocean
It said I'll take the salt of your tears
If you dissolve in immeasurable devotion
I will let my waves embrace your fears

I might have run out of things to say and do
But my heart still knows what it wants
And it bows to you
Strip me of all of my layers
Heed my one last prayer
Let me be the salt to your sea
