My Salt Heart Hue and Cry

I make you sweat to know the taste of me
Ain't nothing sweet about the way that I feel
I'm necessary for you like a chemical
I am the bitterness that you know ever so well

You think I'm a rock but I'm a crumbling man
A few December tears would make the guy right into sand
Call me corrosive but the truth will out
And when we know the truth that's what we have to be about

Right on the tip of your tongue
Just be finding my salt heart (my heart, my heart yeah)
We come together like stones
Just a-grinding my salt heart
(My salt heart)

I know my properties have limited use
But bring me together with you (baby baby) let me prove
A crucial element I will provide
I'll give you so much honesty it's gonna sting your eyes

Right on the tip of your tongue
Just be finding my salt heart (my heart, my heart yeah)
We come together like stones
Just a-grinding my salt heart
(My salt heart)
