[Verse 1] I left my name in the foam By the side of the dock Took one black coat And a pocket full of luck Your men said, โturn backโ But I heard the tide call Thereโs gold in the storm And I want it all [Pre-Chorus] Count my steps on the plank Feel the rope in my hand I donโt bow, I donโt blink Iโm a harder kind of sand [Chorus] Salt on my knife I was born for the ride Salt on my knife I donโt beg, I survive Hey, hey, sail away Take my fear with the tide Salt on my knife Salt on my knife [Verse 2] Moon on the masthead Blood red on the wake I know your cursed map And the lies that it makes If the sea wants my crown It can come take a try Iโll be dancing with ghosts When the cannons fly [Pre-Chorus] Count my steps on the plank Feel the rope in my hand I donโt bow, I donโt blink Iโm a harder kind of sand [Chorus] Salt on my knife I was born for the ride Salt on my knife I donโt beg, I survive Hey, hey, sail away Take my fear with the tide Salt on my knife Salt on my knife [Bridge] Hush now, the waves go low No one sees me fall Iโve been broken before I still answer the call [Final Chorus] Salt on my knife I was born for the ride Salt on my knife I donโt beg, I survive Hey, hey, sail away Take my fear with the tide Salt on my knife Salt on my knife
