Salt In The Wind

Today I realize          
Angels are here with me            
This city just won't let me be        
The wicked are always at my door            
They keep crying out for more        
           
Voices echoing in my head            
Saying leave here before you're dead            
Don't look back my friend            
Her memory blows like the salt in the wind  
 
Here on this mountain            
There's no peace within me            
I pray for you to set me free            
Everything I can't remember            
They took from me in disgrace            
In their attempt to save the human race            
           
Voices echoing in my head            
Saying leave here before you're dead            
Don't look back my friend            
Her memory blows like the salt in the wind            
Like salt in the wind            
           
(Instrumental)            
           
I'm trapped in the beginning of the end      
I can't see my blessings, Just my sins      
They say don't look back my friend        
Everything I can't remember            
They took from me in disgrace      
In their attempt to save the human race      
       
Voices echoing in my head            
Saying leave here before you're dead            
Don't look back my friend            
Her memory blows like the salt in the wind            
Like salt in the wind
