down with the ship
Lyrics by K. Sahagian
I think this is it
I'm sleeping in the surf again
Going down with the ship
I'd love to take you under
And it's all too familiar
The course that we're taking
I could ride this high for a lifetime
Don't you be mistaken
Keeping my head above the rising waves
Doing my best to keep from drifting away
What I would give to just forget it and stay
But you'll be the death of me
Be the death of me
Riding the storm out on a southern cross
Looking behind us at the distance lost
We could rebuild it all but at what cost
And you'll be the death of me
Be the death of me
Open air
And blues in each direction
Hard not to stare
To the coo and calling of ocean falling
And it's all too familiar
But I'm helpless as ever
If we're going down, going down
Might as well be together
Keeping my head above the rising waves
Doing my best to keep from drifting away
What I would give to just forget it and stay
But you'll be the death of me
Be the death of me
Riding the storm out on a southern cross
Looking behind us at the distance lost
We could rebuild it all but at what cost
And you'll be the death of me
Be the death of me
Yeah, yeah, yeah
