Song of the Rats Leaving the Sinking Ship |
Once you rode a tide, it was always flowing out towards the sky |
It was like a dancer who followed your steps |
It was like a lover who could take you to the dawn |
It was like a history you could throw away |
Yeah… |
Now the sea is throwing back all the voices who don’t want to drown |
Every wave is like a soldier who will fade back into the fear |
Where the soldiers are made |
Trapped with your first class papers on a lonely dock |
Where the future is a luxury to mock |
You can laugh, you can cry, you can even bitterly grieve |
But you can’t deny that it’s time to leave |
Your indecision is poison, worse than broken bones or the coffin |
Your either standing still or your running out |
You’re like a safety door that’s stuck and won’t open |
For a fire or a summer day |
All you do is tire |
But you don’t have to try — everyone wants to be deceived |
But you can’t deny that it’s time to leave |
I swear you want to say goodbye even more than you want to breathe |
But you can’t deny that it’s time to leave |
The enemy always lies |
Hides like a match in a lump of coal |
He won’t use his eyes |
He hates you for your soul |
He hates you for soul. |
