lyrics

To recreate this burden in my mind has left my heart in a bind.
You speak to me in fragments while my body lays to rest,
and wake me to a misery my eyes cannot digest.

If this is what you call love, then throw me out to sea.
You’re penitent at the bitter end of every bottle,
still veiled with dishonesty.

Tie me down and cast me out to sea,
as you watch me drown, make sure to breathe in deep.
When you walk away, play the victim once again,
I will wish you well as I fight for my last breath.

Only a fool would give out such a vital organ,
Only a fool would allow their heart to collapse
Don’t you ever say that I slighted you
Don’t you ever say I abandoned you
Only a fool would believe in such a lie.
Call me a fool.

This ship has set sail and surely I will carry on.
This ship has set sail and surely I have carried on.
