Salt and Shadow

[Intro]
[Verse]
Midnight on the boardwalk floor
I can't hear you anymore
Fog is thick and white as bone
Walking this long path alone
Salt is heavy in the air
Ghostly fingers in my hair
Watching how the vapor crawls
Shadows dancing on the walls
[Pre-Chorus]
Then a ghost of a laugh appears
Ringing softly in my ears
Just a ripple in the gray
Leading me so far away
[Chorus]
Let the tide wash the grief away
Turn the midnight into day
Silver waves, take the heavy weight
Leave it all to silent fate
Let the tide wash the grief away
Turn the midnight into day
Silver waves, take the heavy weight
Leave it all to silent fate
[Post-Chorus]
Into the blue
Starting anew
Falling through
Away from you
[Verse]
Lighthouse beams are spinning slow
Nowhere left for me to go
Streetlights glow like dying stars
Hiding all my jagged scars
Mist is heavy on my breath
Quiet as a dream of death
Iron rails are cold and wet
Drowning in a deep regret
[Hook]
Echoes in the mist
Shadows that I've kissed
Echoes in the mist
I no longer exist
[Build-up]
The water is rising high
Underneath the velvet sky
I can feel the current pull
Now the moon is white and full
[Drop]
Let go
I know
[Bridge]
I am standing on the edge
Final word and final pledge
Let the salt dissolve the past
I am free of you at last
Every wave is a release
Bringing me a sudden peace
Let the ocean take the lead
Everything I'll ever need
[Breakdown]
No more echoes
No more ghosts
Just the water
On the coast
[Chorus]
Let the tide wash the grief away
Turn the midnight into day
Silver waves, take the heavy weight
Leave it all to silent fate
Let the tide wash the grief away
Turn the midnight into day
Silver waves, take the heavy weight
Leave it all to silent fate
[Post-Chorus]
Into the blue
Starting anew
Falling through
Away from you
[Outro]
