Feeling Salty
I'm the salt
You're the wound
Can you feel me digging in?
Do you feel how I feel?
Let's be honest for a moment
We have all done it for that special person
"Done it" as in losing it all for that one chance
The chance to walk with them in the sun
Well, my special someone left me
With a sunburn and a heartache
Left me stranded there on the sun
Waiting for her return
Skin melting off the bone
Yet, I didn't see her in sight
Chilling back on Planet Earth she was
The heat was too much for her to handle
I took the nearest spaceship
And headed her direction
She was the only person in the world
That could control my passion to lose it all
My devilish midnight fix
To get me through rough nights
Too bad I wasn't that to her
Another spaceman got her attention
The new captain of her Enterprise
She said call you when things don't work out
Because things never work out with you
Perhaps I put forth too much heart in this
I can't say I'm the victim in this
Constructed this unblemished imitation of her
That she couldn't possibly live up to
She would have decimated me
And I would've let her
How can she bring out the best in me
But I draw out the worst in her
I guess that was our destructive chemistry
The thing that made us so special
I see the good in her
She sees the bad in me
Our time together was past due
We're better separate than as one
Wishing life could give us a chance
But our luck has run out of fortune
Am I mad about it?
Yeah, something of that nature
Am I sad about it?
Might shed a few tears
Cutting the one you love out of your life is never easy
Life forcibly disconnecting your heart from your mind
But, I'm entirely grateful for her
Because I'm learning to move on
I thought I was nothing without her
Not knowing how to feel
She ran across my mind for so long
I forgot which way went up and down
No more constantly wondering about her and her life
Daydreaming about a future where we're pulled back to each other’s orbit
I learned how to rotate on my own axis
Being worthy of being the center of my universe
I'm finally letting this go
I'm letting her go
I’m thankful for what she brought out of me
I'm moving on
