Ship My Body Home |
| Coming out of Sydney |
| Country music playing |
| Cursing all of them who stayed |
| In the city |
| I own this city |
| Get drunker than a poet who just got paid |
| And I’m finally hoping |
| That I’ll be torn open |
| So that every word I say is true |
| The words I’m shouting |
| While I work it out |
| In case trouble takes me and I don’t make it through |
| You have to ship my body home |
| Ship my body home |
| All I ever wanted was to finish what I started |
| But there’s no way I could do it on my own |
| You have to ship my body home |
| Driving through the mountains |
| Cutting through the night time |
| Stopping now and then to wonder why |
| I left the city |
| The quiet city |
| I killed its memory just to watch it die |
| And I’m finally hoping |
| That I’ll be torn open |
| So that every word I say is true |
| The words you’re hearing |
| While I make it clear |
| In case trouble takes me and I don’t make it through |
| You have to ship my body home |
| Ship my body home |
| All I ever wanted was to finish what I started |
| But there’s no way I could do it on my own |
| You have to ship my body |
| Ship my body |
| Ship my body |
| All I ever wanted was to finish what I started |
| So ship my body |
| All I ever wanted was to finish what I started |
| So ship my body |
| All I ever wanted was |
| All I ever wanted was |
| All I ever wanted once I finished what I started |
| Was to ship my body home |
