Estella Dawn : "SALT"

When you feel like you’ve hit your own personal rock bottom, when you’re frustrated with the world, with yourself, with everybody around you, when it’s hard to feel positive because it feels like life is throwing punch after punch at you and you don’t feel like you have the strength to take it. In the words of artist Estella Dawn, “sometimes you just need to let tears flow and cleanse the things that you can’t control.”
Dawn has strong views about the world and isn’t afraid to share them through her engaging, candid music. “I’ve always seen my internal darkness as wolves, I’m either part of the pack, or on the run from the parts of myself that scare me. But no matter which side I’m on, they’re always there. When the pack is descending and my mind starts spiraling it feels like all I can do is keep my head down and set one foot in front of the other, just getting through the day in hope of a better tomorrow.”
She adds, “we all have our own ways to cope, whether it’s having a cry sitting on the floor of your shower or screaming along to aggressive rock music in the car, buying too many house plants or finding comfort in somebody else's company, drinking, smoking, eating, the list goes on. We’re all just doing our best.”
Lyrics:
I don’t want to put my faith in fate
It’s like salt in a wound
Salt salt in a wound
When life throws me shit that it knows I can’t take
It’s like salt in a wound
Salt, salt in a wound
I’ve learned my lesson
Burnt out and stressing
Nothing comes easy, nothing comes easy
Nothing comes…
Oh i’ve learned my lesson
Burnt out and stressing
Nothing comes easy, nothing comes easy
Nothing comes…
So I keep my head down
Bare feet on cold concrete
Can’t slow down
All the wolves they start to creep like
Nana nana nana
You ain’t out of the woods yet
Out of the woods
All these chemicals in my veins
Gotta wring them our
Wring wring them out
Self sabotage ain’t ok
I’m begging you to wring me out
Wring wring me out
I’ve learned my lesson
Count all your blessings
Nothing comes easy, nothing comes easy
Nothing comes…
Oh i’ve learned my lesson
Count every blessing
Nothing comes easy, nothing comes easy
Nothing comes…
So I keep my head down
Bare feet on cold concrete
Can’t slow down
All the wolves they start to creep like
Nana nana nana
You ain’t out of the woods yet
GET OUTA OF THE…
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You ain’t out of the woods yet
Caught me on my knees at the graveside
Wish that I could say it was the first time
Gotta run, gotta run, gotta run, gotta run
Wolves are all around me now, I can’t be done
Gotta run, gotta run, gotta run, gotta run
Wolves are all around…
So I keep my head down
Bare feet on cold concrete
Can’t slow down
All the wolves they start to creep like
Nana nana nana
You Ain’t out of the woods yet
GET OUTA OF THE…
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You ain’t out of the woods yet
