lyrics

Abandon ship
You know he’s drowning you
He’s made of lead
You know you’re sinking too

And it’s slowly
Seeping through
As you swallow your regret
Late nights on the phone
Behind a cigarette

Don’t bail the water
It’s a futile task
Jump off the boat
Why would you climb the mast?

I don’t see how you could love
Somebody else so much
To drown instead of leaving him in the muck


I will never be
I will never be
Caught up in the riptide
I’m lonely but at least I’m dry

I will never see
I will never see
What motivates your suicide?
I’m lonely but at least I’m alive

Or am I

I don’t ever go down with my ship
The sea gets rough and I just quit
What the hell am I trying to prove?
I wish I could drown with you
But I abandon ship.
