Grains of Salt Lyrics by Denni Ian

The Sad Saint of South End

2020

What did you expect that would grow
From the grains of salt that you planted in the soul
Of the open fields
Where the pale horses used to run wild?
There are no masterpieces among the things I've done
I'm talking with echoes all day long
I saw the ants move in the eyes of the lamb
I asked the butcher; how come that you never smile
Has it something to do with why I blink all the time?
I passed thе crown prince on my way out
He didn't notice mе
He was occupied with thoughts on the war
I didn't know what was going on
I was still in awe of the coffee
You had spilt on the floor
I never realised that you get so tired
Just by praying for all of the souls
That drowned in the grand design
Of the beauty in your smile
Disappointments and regrets
This life is pretty hard to get right
