Charlie Parr Salt Water Lyrics


Salt Water by Charlie Parr

Salt water has surrounded my home
And it looks like today will be
The day I pack my belongings
And leave where I'm from
Will I ever be back again?

Salt water, up to my door
There's no one else home
I'm here all alone
Salt water under the eaves
There's no relief
And I can't leave

Heavy air has invaded my past
And stolen my family
They're swirling above me
High in the mist
But I don't know if I'll see them again

Salt water, up to my door
There's no one else home
I'm here all alone
Salt water under the eaves
There's no relief
And I can't leave

Poisoned water has threatened my life
And destroyed my neighborhood
My friends are all thirsty
But there's nothing to drink
Will it rain again, we can't tell

Salt water, up to my door
There's no one else home
I'm here all alone
Salt water under the eaves
There's no relief
And I can't leave

Fire and smoke are killing my soul
And blocking out all of the light
I can't see past all the anger and hate
How can I live without any faith?

Salt water, up to my door
There's no one else home
I'm here all alone
Salt water under the eaves
There's no relief
And I can't leave

The road back home has been widened and paved
And it looks like it's brand new
But there's something we lost
When we straightened the curves
Did we bury what once brought us ease?

Salt water, up to my door
There's no one else home
I'm here all alone
Salt water under the eaves
There's no relief
And I can't leave

Salt water has surrounded my home
And it looks like today will be
The day I pack my belongings
And leave where I'm from
Will I ever be back again?
