Lyrics
I've been living out of context, I've been writing that way too.
There was a ship there was an ocean and the other ship was you.
Now I'm standing on the dry land with water in my ears
There's a story i'd have chosen but that one's far from here
Oh, I just smile and I move along
Oh, I keep waving 'til you're really gone
Oh, I am working on the final line
Oh, here it is I wish it wasn't mine
If you cannot be a ship, then be a stone
And if you cannot sink together
Sink alone
The hardest truth is at the bottom, I am finding it out
And when everything is quiet it's the loudest thing around
At the bottom of the ocean, there's a heartbeat in your ears
The music stops with eyes wide open, where do you go from here?
Oh, sinking ships that keep sailing on
Oh, you won't love me 'til i'm really gone
Oh, I am working on the final line
Oh, here it is I wish it wasn't mine
If you cannot be a ship, then be a stone
And if you cannot sink together
Sink alone
Oh, now the ocean finally spits me up
Oh, I am Jonah this is Nineveh
Oh, I am working on the final line
Oh, here it is I wish it wasn't mine
If you cannot be a ship, then be a stone
And if you cannot sink together
Sink alone
