relapse to the waves of my heart beating
run to the force of your wake receding
intangible losses and aching knees
onward I’ll take only what I need
but i miss the pace of a world brand new
when I could find faith in a man like you
dreaming in crosses and space between
reaching as far down as the road work’s seen

The Unsinkable Ship

the water is wide as the lies you spoke
the more slack on the line, the less I choke
pull me down upon your whim before
I cut ties and it’s over
machine like, but a little loose
time after time, you’ve become my noose
reality could set in soon
but I don’t think it’s over
I don’t think it’s over
I won’t look back or I’ll lose my grip
‘cause we can’t save this sinking ship
I would rather die in love than live forever
so keep your head over water
as the day sinks in and we’re going under
if I had known any better I would have gone alone
the water is pouring in
we’re going down
I’ll never let go
the water is pouring in
we’re going down
I’ll never let go
reality could set in soon
but I don’t think it’s over
I won’t look back or I’ll lose my grip
‘cause we can’t save this sinking ship
I would rather die in love than live forever
so keep your head over water
as the day sinks in and we’re going under
if I had known any better I would have gone alone
the water is pouring in
we’re going down
I’ll never let go

work worn hands and rings around my eyes
are the only truth that cuts through the lies
and the hope of a life that were made for
is more white noise that you adorn
let your faults guide you home
when you see the hall and the
cracks in the door
I won't be there any more
I will set my body out to sea
and hope for safety or
Drown
work worn hands and rings around my eyes
won't be the last thing that you see tonight
let your faults guide you home
when you see the hall and the
cracks in the door
I won't be there any more
I will set my body out to sea
and hope for safety or
I will go down
you will take me with you
when you see the hall and the
cracks in the door
I won't be there any more
I will set my body out to sea
and hope for safety or

though you spark when we are meant
our only trust is in the parts connected
tangled by thoughts of yours and mine
drawn out through the mire often undefined
could we trade my shame for distance?
every mile reminiscent
your hands hold the key which can ignite our wishes
turn off the sun and lose all of our innocence
you know I’m here, while I’m drifting and fading away
you waste all your tears on what others play just as a game
I see no glory in chasing apparitions
I must move from my disposition to strike
with fire what’s dead but once was alive
you linger like an ember on my mind
(a kind of glowing light)
remind me still what will be missing
when we burn to extinguish all our innocence
you know I’m here, while I’m drifting and fading away
you waste all your tears on what others play just as a game
you know I’m here, while I’m drifting and fading away

in the middle of an unseen ocean
there’s a man who sleeps atop the rocks
never wondering where it begins or stops
and sets into motion all the waves
lapping on to all our crops
he speaks the beat by which the world will turn away
never knowing who started it all off
so he goes on as if in a dream
tell me something, if nothing else challenging
break my notions, I’ll crumble as you lie to me
give me steps to change my feet
I’ll break loose when you set me free
relapse to the waves of my heart beating
run to the force of your wake receding
intangible losses and aching knees
onward I’ll take only what I need
but i miss the pace of a world brand new
when I could find faith in a man like you
dreaming in crosses and space between
reaching as far down as the road work’s seen
tell me something, if nothing else challenging
break my notions, I’ll crumble as you lie to me
give me steps to change my feet
I’ll break loose when you set me free
relapse to the waves of my heart beating
run to the force of your wake receding
intangible losses and aching knees
onward I’ll take only what I need
but i miss the pace of a world brand new
when I could find faith in a man like you
dreaming in crosses and space between
reaching as far down as the road work’s seen
(the water is pouring in
we’re going down
I’ll never let go
the water is pouring in
we’re going down
I’ll never let go)
in the middle of an unseen ocean
there’s a man who sleeps atop the rocks
never wondering where it begins or stops
and sets into motion all the waves
lapping on to all our crops
he speaks the beat by which the world will turn away
never knowing who started it all off
so he goes on as if in a dream
