The Drowning

I'm born every day just to love you
And think of you a little bit more
Just hoping today I won't miss you
But I'm thinking I will do for sure
Whiskey's the thing I won't turn to
Drugs are a thing that won't help
This is all that I had to begin with
I was as far as could be when I fell
And I'm going down
With this ship
And I'll most likely will drown
But it's worth it
It's worth it
And if I'm the sailor, you're captain
You steered us off course and you know
And the water's gushing is an omen
Our love is an old weary boat
And I'll hold your hair back if you're seasick
And I make sure you aren't too shore-safe
Then I'm afraid I must be leaving
And I'm afraid that you won't relate
And I'm going down
With this ship
And I'll most likely will drown
But it's worth it
It's worth it. It's worth it
