letra de salt of the earth - the killigans
it’s been a year since tragedy
took the stories from his lips
now that it’s time to turn the page
he finds his hands, they shake just a bit more
than they did when he was younger
the dying light reveals a man
whose haggard face shows just like a brand
but his eyes, they’re cold and bright
like the january sun
he watched his kingdom’s walls come crashing down
his fall from grace laced with regret
a pauper king sitting on his wretched throne
clutching hopelessly at what was once and may never come again
cause he’s the salt of the earth
knocked down but undefeated
they’ll win the war but he’ll take the day
he’s the salt of the earth
courtesies will go unheeded
head held high, he’s gonna make ‘em pay
a weary sigh, he turns to fight
cowards crawling from the woodwork fall upon him left and right
his busted knuckles raised
he goes out to me them
so many years he chose between being decent and being right
but will your pride and your convictions keep you safe and warm at night?
what good are walls, when they’re built to shun the world?
embrace the cold and bitter end
he watched his kingdom’s walls come crashing down
his fall from grace laced with regret
a pauper king sitting on his wretched throne
clutching hopelessly at what was once and may never come again
cause he’s the salt of the earth
knocked down but undefeated
they’ll win the war but he’ll take the day
he’s the salt of the earth
courtesies will go unheeded
head held high, he’s gonna make ‘em pay
yeah, he’s the salt of the earth
knocked down but undefeated
they’ll win the war but he’ll take the day
yeah, he’s the salt of the earth
courtesies will go unheeded
head held high, he’s gonna make ‘em pay
head held high, he’s gonna make ‘em pay
