What the Pillar of Salt Held Up

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The take off makes no sound It's high and far away The blue sky by the moon It takes my breath away What you choose What you choose to throw away Into the undertow A happiness like we'll never know [Verse 2] You can't overcome Your bitterness and pain And you don't remember how To start your life again You were born to please Born to put on a show But you always run away From a happiness like we'll never know [Bridge] No hiding place in all the sky No camouflage to keep you warm at night And no clothes you got seem to keep out the wind or the rain No way out from your shame [Verse 3] The take off makes no sound As you fly away with that look on your face That gives it all away Secrets that the sea would never tell the soul Of where the current flows A happiness like we'll never know
