Lead Sails (And A Paper Anchor) Songtext
Marching along
Like a good soldier does
I'm setting sail
With anchors
Holding me down
Pack up my bags.
Stow them away
I'm bidding farwell
To all that is safe
Will I come up for air?
Come up for air
After a while the current is calling me
Lulling me waving goodbye
I'm out here alone, oh god can you save me now?
Sinking my heart turns to stone
Withering away
A shrinking violet dies
So full of life
These lights have dried me out
Into the sea
Needed a drink
I never thought
This would consume me whole
After a while the current is calling me
Lulling me waving goodbye
I'm out here alone, oh god can you save me now?
Sinking my heart turns to stone
(Turns to stone. Turns to stone)
Save me. Take me home
(over and over again)
Save me. Take me home
(wishing that this all would end)
After a while the current is calling me
Lulling me waving goodbye
I'm out here alone, oh god can you save me now?
Sinking my heart turns to stone
Save me. Take me home.
(will I come up for air?)
Save me. Take me home.
(over and over again. Wishing that this all would end)
Like a good soldier does
I'm setting sail
With anchors
Holding me down
Pack up my bags.
Stow them away
I'm bidding farwell
To all that is safe
Will I come up for air?
Come up for air
After a while the current is calling me
Lulling me waving goodbye
I'm out here alone, oh god can you save me now?
Sinking my heart turns to stone
Withering away
A shrinking violet dies
So full of life
These lights have dried me out
Into the sea
Needed a drink
I never thought
This would consume me whole
After a while the current is calling me
Lulling me waving goodbye
I'm out here alone, oh god can you save me now?
Sinking my heart turns to stone
(Turns to stone. Turns to stone)
Save me. Take me home
(over and over again)
Save me. Take me home
(wishing that this all would end)
After a while the current is calling me
Lulling me waving goodbye
I'm out here alone, oh god can you save me now?
Sinking my heart turns to stone
Save me. Take me home.
(will I come up for air?)
Save me. Take me home.
