Salt
Hybrid Lyrics

Burn in the distance
I see something in the distance burning or shining brightly.

I can see the shape
I can see the form or outline of something in the distance.

It won't be long till you taste salt with me
Soon enough, you will share the same experience of hardship or difficulty with me, represented by the taste of salt.

I heard the wind whisper something to my mind
The passing air spoke to me, conveying a message or feeling in my thoughts.

I feel feverish–a little–it's just beneath my skin
I sense a mild unease or anxiety that is building up within me, waiting to surface.

It's the moment before something starts and something begins
This is the moment that precedes a change or transition, where one thing is replaced by another.

I can taste salt on your skin
I perceive a sensation of saltiness in your presence, indicating that we are both undergoing the same experience.

I have found another place to play
I have discovered a new situation or environment that provides me with a sense of enjoyment or fulfillment.

And slowly and steadily, I am falling away
I am gradually distancing myself from my previous circumstances, moving towards new opportunities or challenges.

And so I'm finding I'm getting the right things
I am beginning to obtain the things that I need or desire, leading me to a sense of satisfaction or contentment.

And finally you are losing your head
You are becoming consumed by your emotions or circumstances, leading to irrational behavior or thoughts.

I always wanted to taste the bittersweet
I have longed for the experience of mixed emotions or hardship, believing it would provide a sense of fulfillment or meaning.

And you're swept away
You are being carried away by your emotions or situation, losing control or direction.

Birds and bees torment me and use my shape
I am being bothered or troubled by natural elements or creatures, that are exploiting my physical form for their own needs.

On other matters bring me air to breathe
In other aspects of my life, I need space or support to feel comfortable and at ease.

And let me feel salt in my hair
Allow me to experience the challenging or painful aspects of life that make me stronger, represented by the sensation of salt in my hair.

It's the moment where the fear digs in
This is the moment where my anxieties or doubts become entrenched, making it difficult to cope or move forward.

You have found a better place to play
You have discovered a new situation or environment that is bringing you joy or satisfaction.

But slowly and steadily, we are falling away
Despite our shared experiences or past, we are slowly growing apart and moving towards different paths.

And now you're finding you're getting the right things
You are beginning to find fulfillment or joy in your life, by obtaining the things that are important to you.

And finally you are losing your head
You are becoming consumed by your emotions or circumstances, leading to irrational behavior or thoughts.

You always wanted to taste the bittersweet
You have always desired the mixed emotions or hardship that comes with life, seeking a sense of meaning or fulfillment in it.

And you're swept away
You are being carried away by your emotions or situation, losing control or direction.

I will be rolled over and over
I will undergo many trials or difficulties in life, continuously facing new challenges or obstacles.

You're getting pulled down underwater
You are being consumed or overwhelmed by the negative aspects of life, represented by the image of being submerged underwater.

And as the bittersweet digs in
As the mixed emotions or hardships of life become more intense or difficult to bear, I begin to feel their effects.

I can taste salt on your skin
I can still perceive the shared experience of hardship or difficulty in your presence, as represented by the taste of salt on your skin.
