lyrics
Salt & Stitches
I’ve got chills
I’ve got aches
I watched my past blow across the lake
(Is there a place for us,
Somewhere beyond this rut)
When you’re ash
When you’re dust
Stitches & Salt won’t affect your cuts
(When perspective reigns,
we won’t be wasting days)
It’s ok to take what you’ve been told
It’s ok to grow beyond the mold
We’re alright
We’re just fine
Don’t wanna talk about it
If it helps
You sleep at night
Let all your stories out
We’re alright
We’re just fine
A flashback for the broken hearted
We’re alright
We’re just fine
You’ve lost hope
And you’re numb
Needles and pins lodged in your gums
(And it’s in my head,
and it’s in my home)
And your brain
Repeats
The horror film from within a deep sleep
(When the lights are out
& you’re lost in space and sound)
Just like an atlas holding in the world
(Beyond the lake)
Just like an atlas weighed down by the earth
(The same mistakes)
Just like an atlas holding in the world
It’s ok to take what you’ve been told
It’s ok to grow beyond the mold
It’s ok to move beyond the lake
It’s ok to make the same mistakes
I’ve got chills
I’ve got aches
I watched my past blow across the lake
(Is there a place for us,
Somewhere beyond this rut)
When you’re ash
When you’re dust
Stitches & Salt won’t affect your cuts
(When perspective reigns,
we won’t be wasting days)
It’s ok to take what you’ve been told
It’s ok to grow beyond the mold
We’re alright
We’re just fine
Don’t wanna talk about it
If it helps
You sleep at night
Let all your stories out
We’re alright
We’re just fine
A flashback for the broken hearted
We’re alright
We’re just fine
You’ve lost hope
And you’re numb
Needles and pins lodged in your gums
(And it’s in my head,
and it’s in my home)
And your brain
Repeats
The horror film from within a deep sleep
(When the lights are out
& you’re lost in space and sound)
Just like an atlas holding in the world
(Beyond the lake)
Just like an atlas weighed down by the earth
(The same mistakes)
Just like an atlas holding in the world
It’s ok to take what you’ve been told
It’s ok to grow beyond the mold
It’s ok to move beyond the lake
It’s ok to make the same mistakes
