With This Ship
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I think we're heading in the same direction
When you go bit insane
I try to reason it's too easy to give up on it
But I don't wanna play this blame game again
We cover over all the things that bring us closer
And before you know it it's goodbye
So now you've said your piece
And I try to find a way to organize my mind
Stay on course, straight and true
And you, you think we're heading in the right direction
but I don't know if I do too
Cos I try to send a message
But you don't wanna hear it
You're so obsessed with all the things they said and how they see us
I try to draw the anchor but you just cast another down
Don't wanna go down with this ship
Don't wanna go down (with this ship)
No I don't wanna go down (with this ship)
I don't wanna go down (with this ship)
No I don't wanna go down (with this ship)
Cos I try to send a message but you don't wanna hear it
You're so obsessed with all the things they said and how they see us
I try to draw the anchor but you just cast another
And I don't wanna go down with this ship
I fly this flag forever but you don't wanna see it
The way it was it's how it is for you and you can't leave it
We're only treading water, but slowly sinking deeper
And I don't wanna go down with this ship
I don't wanna go down with this ship
I don't wanna go down with this ship
