Salt Water

I try to get rid of your scent

I wash my hair in hopes of getting you out my head

I try to erase you from my hands

I clean my skin so I forget where I have been

I’ve tried everything but somehow it’s not sinking in

I’ve tried everything, yeah I’ve tried

That is why I bathe, that is why I bathe

That is why I bathe in salt water

There is nothing that I wouldn’t do


To feel like I could be someone completely new 


So I treated myself, but now I know


That new shoes and new clothes


Can’t fix a broken heart, no

I’ve tried everything to feel like myself again

I’ve tried everything

I’ve tried but somehow it still stings

I’ve tried everything

But somehow it’s not sinking in

I’ve tried everything

Yeah, I’ve tried

That is why I bathe, that is why I bathe

That is why I bathe in salt water

That is why I bathe, that is why I bathe

Even through the pain, in salt water

So now I bathe in salt water 
I know it hurts, but that’s all part of

The way to heal and make you stronger

That’s why I bathe in salt water
