The Arrivals - Company Of Salt lyrics

In the company of salt There was a burning in his arm He said "I'll kick it anytime." Like a shot His final warning And though the tissue remained unharmed Somewhere, a hole, it was forming In the company of salt In the company of salt Between the golden hours No more waiting for the call A colony of veins Squarely bared the a**ault And though the candle's not worth the game He'd solve this mystery somehow In the company of salt The company of salt At seventeen years old There's no fast track to salvation For a kid that's filled with holes There's no special rights And though society's not to blame Really, could we have saved him? In the company of salt The company of salt For some it's just another taste Unfolding in some time to waste It surely missed them For him it seems a sullen pride Unfolding every time he lied To friends dismissing: "We weren't the ones To put the gone in his hand." And now there's no one here Who wants to kiss him No one here will really miss him In the company of salt The company of salt Company of salt
