29 Lyrics by Run River North

Drinking from a Salt Pond

2016

[Intro]
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

[Verse 1]
Trees grow where the ground's alright
Die old in the middle of the night
Roots up my hands to reach
Cut me down where the water meets the sea

[Verse 2]
My eyes were the first to find
29 in the middle of the night
Words in my head to sleep
Keep me up until the body disagrees
Keep me up until the body disagrees
Keep me up until the body disagrees
Keep me up until the body disagrees
Keep me up until the body disagrees

[Chorus]
Your words are cold like the wind
They hold no weight around me
Let go, you're telling me to let go
I know the shadows are the only ones

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh
I know the shadows are the only ones
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

[Verse 3]
Trees grow where the ground's alright
Die old in the middle of the night
Words in my head to sleep
Keep me up until the body disagrees
Keep me up until the body disagrees

[Chorus]
Your words are cold like the wind
They hold no weight around me
Let go, you're telling me to let go
I know the shadows are the only ones
Your words are cold like the wind
They hold no weight around me
Let go, you're telling me to let go
I know the shadows are the only ones

[Bridge]
I know it's home
I know it hurts
I know I'll end up at the bottom of your dirt
What if I leave?
Never become?
What if the sea leads me straight to the sun?
I know it's home
I know it hurts
I know I'll end up at the bottom of your dirt
What if I leave?
Never become?
What if the sea leads me straight to the sun?

[Chorus]
Your words are cold like the wind
They hold no weight around me
Let go, you're telling me to let go
I know the shadows are the only ones
Your words are cold like the wind
They hold no weight around me
Let go, you're telling me to let go
I know the shadows are the only ones

[Outro]
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
