Saltwater Tape

[Intro]
[Verse]
The driftwood is cold
My secrets are old
The fort is half-gone
Before the new dawn
I find a glass shard
Where the tide is hard
The sand is so deep
Where the memories sleep
[Pre-Chorus]
The fog horn calls out
Removing every doubt
The tide is coming in
To wash away the sin
[Chorus]
Oh, it’s a saltwater tape
There is no escape
From the things we hid
When we were just kids
Buried in the silt
And the sand we built
Just a ghost on the shore
I don't know you anymore
[Verse]
The ukulele strings
Remembering all things
The analog hiss
A summer we miss
Your name on the beam
Like a fading dream
The roof is a shell
With a story to tell
[Pre-Chorus]
The fog horn calls out
Removing every doubt
The tide is coming in
To wash away the sin
[Chorus]
Oh, it’s a saltwater tape
There is no escape
From the things we hid
When we were just kids
Buried in the silt
And the sand we built
Just a ghost on the shore
I don't know you anymore
[Bridge]
The synth pads are low
We’ve got nowhere to go
Just drifting away
In the light of the grey
The memory fades
In the coastal shades
I’m losing the key
To the boy I used to be
[Post-Chorus]
Salt on my skin
Let the ocean begin
Salt on my tongue
When we were so young
[Outro]
