The Ocean (Is Bleeding Salt) lyrics

Strung out down in a hole And the ocean is bleeding salt down the mile So I hid as armies marched But you found me, I'll turn when I sleep on your porch And don't you cry, my darling Nashville is forgotten Mama, and don't you cry, my darling New York is the ocean Brooklyn, quiet and cold When the bars close You're stuck counting cracks on the street The war breaks and you're swinging a gun When the bomb drops You're stuck picking lead from your teeth And don't you cry, my darling Nashville is forgotten Mama, and don't you cry, my darling New York is the ocean Strung out down in a hole And the ocean is bleeding salt down the mile
