Salt Skin

Salt Skin
You're as sharp as a knife
and you fit like a glove
That is no way to live
that is no way to love
Full of fear in your skin
and the weakness in giving in
Stabbed in the back but youi feel no paid
Push the heaviest doors
that you can't open
Yeah they tied me up
and my body lies still, again

You're as bright as the sun
and as bold as the moon
I don't know when you'll break
but it's going be soon
If my will caves in. I'll be in the same
boat as you
I've got the salt skin
Running to where he is
Never going to give in
Even with the strength
He's steealing salt skin
Telling me I'm wiinning wars they created
just under the .."the meaning of"
Hands on strings and my mouth open
Find the perfect words
that i've not spoken
And I won't tell the turth
unless you want me to
For all of the times that I lot my head
When it rolled to the floor
and I found it again
But when it come back
I didn't know why own name
I've got the salt skin
Running to where he is
Never going to give in
Even with the strength
He's stealing salt skin
Telling me I'm winning wars they created
just to understand
I've got the salt skin
Running to where he is
Never going to give in
Even with the strength
He's stealing salt skin
Telling me I'm winning wars they created
just to understand
En 'Salt Skin' de Ellie Goulding, la letra evoca una sensación de fuerza y vulnerabilidad entrelazadas. Se describe a alguien tan afilado como un cuchillo y tan adecuado como un guante, pero viviendo y amando de una manera que no parece auténtica...
