[Lyric] Salt (Pearl Rennial)

You begin speaking
and I can feel the way you
prod at me to see
through the slats of my ribs
like bending the blinds trying to peer out
Makes me wonder why you pulled them down
if you wanted to see my window break
but I guess the cracks
are just enough to make
to make it weak

I'll pretend not to notice
discomfort although this
sadistic situation is all I ever knew
so I guess we'll stay inside
and drink this bottle of wine

You want me to go to pieces
and leave me left in the ruin
I never know what you might do
You say that you didn't mean it
while shaking salt on the wound
as if you want to savor it
(you savor it)

I truly wonder
what runs through your head
when you look at me
it's almost eerie
invite me out just to see
the hurt on my face
I think the worst part is
that I asked for a confession
but it's hard to condemn a lie
if it means I gained a love song

Offended by any mention
How could I dare to accuse
of any wrong that you could do

(Did me wrong
Didn't stop)

I could keep you out of my life
but you're one of the few who know me
you've seen me at my worst
and watched like I'm your favorite celebrity

I'll pretend not to notice
discomfort although this
sadistic situation was all I had with you
so I shouldn't be surprised
to see that gleam of contempt in your eyes
