Salt and Fire

[Verse 1] The whiskey burned, a fire in my veins, And tears fell hot, like summer rains. You held my gaze, saw my spirit stripped, Salt and fire on my trembling lip. [Chorus] We built pyres in the haze of your cigarette, Burning sweet sin, skin and breath intertwined Dreams whispered soft, of hope and regret, And ashes of desire, scattered and resigned. [verse 2] My songs hung hollow as I watched you sway, My music mocked me as you slipped away. Salt and fire, a wound upon my tongue While my final chords remained unsung. [Chorus] We built pyres in the haze of your cigarette, Burning sweet sin, skin and breath intertwined Dreams whispered soft, of hope and regret, And ashes of desire, scattered and resigned. We built pyres in the haze of your cigarette, Burning sweet sin, skin and breath intertwined Dreams whispered soft, of hope and regret, And ashes of desire, scattered and resigned.
