[Intro] [clean electric guitar, palm-muted rhythmic pattern] [Verse 1] [male vocals, mid-range] Fold my shirts and toss the weight from last night I pack my bags and take a bruise in the light Your name on my phone like glass in my head I smile for the mirror then fall back again I kept it all in till it shook my frame One drop then two, now they know my name And I hate how it starts just once more again [Chorus] [distorted electric guitar enters, driving drums] Salt on my car, salt on my face I cry, I cry, then I clean my place Salt on my car, don't look away I break, I break, then I breathe okay [falsetto] (Cry, cry, breathe okay) (Cry, breathe okay) (Cry) [Verse 2] [clean guitar returns, drums pull back to a steady beat] The shower runs cold but it helps me stand I trace all the hurt with a trembling hand Black liner streaks down my cheekbone line I'm not made of stone, I just need more time I kept it all in till it shook my frame One drop then two, now they know my name And I hate how it starts just once more again [Chorus] [full band intensity, distorted guitar] Salt on my car, salt on my face I cry, I cry, then I clean my place Salt on my car, don't look away I break, I break, then I breathe okay [falsetto] (Cry, cry, breathe okay) If I let it out, maybe it won't stay Maybe tears can wash the sharp edges away I don't need your cure, I need my own gaze Let the whole thing fall, let it fall today [Outro] [heavy guitar chords, crashing cymbals] Salt on my car, salt on my face I cry, I cry, then I clean my place Salt on my car, don't look away I break, I break, then I breathe okay [falsetto] (Breathe okay) [music fades out]
