Going Down With This Ship - Luke Pickett

It’s starring you.

It’s starring me.

It’s starring words

I don’t feel you believe.

It’s giving hope

to all of us

who’d sooner play a rich mans game

than fall in love.

You come apart

with every line,

like a bird with wings that has no reason to fly.

So

I watch the waves surround us.

Leave us ship-wrecked on a

desert island filed with pirates,

but this time treasure will not save us.

Run away and they’ll only follow you.

Sail away and the waves will come for you.

(x2)

This ghost ship

it haunts my dreams.

Abandon hope.

I swim for love baby.

I reach the shore.

Saved by a storm,

that shows me what

I have become.

A diary that speaks of torture.

We’re your passengers,

all heart broken in black and white.

Such a graceful suicide.

Run away and they’ll only follow you.

Sail away and the waves will come for you.

(x2)

The TV cracks as

I reach out for you.

You’ve been brain washed,

this worlds got to you.

Girl the pretty face on the magazine aint you.

The waves waves waves

will come for you.

Run away and they’ll only follow you.

Sail away and the waves will come for you (x2)

ohhhhh

(the waves waves waves

waves waves waves)

uhhhhh.
