Saltfire Tension

Who said stay calm?

(Who? Who?)

Rubbing salt into the friction

No peace, no benediction We don't do calm here,

we break the frame

Throwing fuel right into the flame

Salt in the wound and it's not chill!

(No!) Screaming at the top of the hill!

We are not calm,

we are not quiet!

Turn this silence into a riot!

Pour it out, let it sting

That's the tension we bring

No lukewarm water, no safety net

This is as sharp as it gets

Not chill!

Not safe!

(Not safe!) Watch it burn,

watch it break!

Salt in the wound and it's not chill!

(No!) Screaming at the top of the hill!

We are not calm,

we are not quiet!

Turn this silence

into a riot!

No calm. (Never.)

Just salt.
