Pomegranates and Salt
take it with a grain of salt
like you take me as a grain of salt
but don’t blame yourself baby
cuz it’s not your fault
Place it on me
Not that i don’t like change.
It just seems like i let
All the bad things
Fall into place
Trust me I’m tired.
But is there use trying
Not to feel so small
As a grain of salt
Ready to be dissolved
In a love that’s false
It’s not that i don’t want change
What’s there to do anyway
Add flavor to your life
Make you feel good for the night
then you walk away?
I give my all
Yet you let me fall
Off of countertops
Thought i was your top
Priority
Fall in love with feeling lovely
Quick fixes of “i love thee “
And “Shall i compare thee to a summers day”’s
Just for you to walk away
And i don’t take it to heart
when you break me down into parts
ions, atoms, the very core, the very start
It’s not that i don’t like change
Sticking by your side seems to be the only way
So take it with a grain of salt
Like i let you take me as a grain of salt
