The Ocean (Is Bleeding Salt) (Live) Lyrics

Strung out,

Down in a hole

And the ocean is bleedin' salt

Down the mine

So I hid

As armies marched

But you found me awake, half asleep

On your porch

And don't you cry my darlin'

Nashville is forgotten

And don't you cry my darlin'

New York is the ocean

Brooklyn,

Quiet and cold when the bars close

You're stuck countin' cracks on the street

The war breaks

And you're swingin' a gun

When the bomb drops

You're stuck countin' cracks in your teeth

And don't you cry my darlin'

Nashville is forgotten

And don't you cry my darlin'

New York is the ocean

Strung out,

Down in a hole

And the ocean is bleedin' salt

Down the mine
