The Only One Who Could Ever Reach You by Empire! Empire! (I was A Lonely Estate) Lyrics

The smell of salt hangs in the air
Heavy, and pregnant with tears

How could I have ever have thought I could call this place home?

(where a sea of concrete swallows everything)

So while you paced the floor of our apartment
(a prison for two months still)
I was forcing conversation and not fitting in

Dear, there is no shame in cutting all of our losses!

Let the whole damn coast fall in
