Salt and Shadow Songtext

von Thrice

The sky took its cue
Every color and hue on display
'Til thick veils of indigo signaled the end of the day
But each landscape that lies in the mirror of your eyes turns to grey

Ooh, ooh
On the edge of a knife's

Like your living your life on the stage
You're talking through glass
Would you swear photographs on a page
Oh we're never alone but we're each in our own little cage
Ooh, ooh

You're here but it's clear
You're just salt and shadow
Here half a world away
You're here but you're nearly a hologram
Here, still so far away

Ooh, ooh
You manage to hide even here by my side where we lay

Here in this bed where I sense every thread start to fray
And I feel our skin touch but there's only so much you can say
You're here but it's clear

You're just salt and shadow
Here, half a world away
You're here but you're nearly a hologram, so
Here, still so far away
Ooh, ooh
You're here but it's clear
You're just salt and shadow
Here half a world away
You're here but it's clear
You're just salt and shadow
Here half a world away
