Sinking Ships Lyrics


To know her is to see

that nothing is as it seems

She’ll show her true face when you’re

stripped of all belief

Sweet tyrant, laying out the course with what you need

To send you through the veils

of Eternity



Crack me open or I’ll go down

on this sinking ship, don’t leave

me to drown

Still the water bears the sound

of my eternal plea

and all I found



And all I will…



She calls you with a mirage

Of what you want to see

You fall into her arms

As she shatters all your dreams

Sweet violence, aimed to crack the shell from which you bleed

And send you through the tree of Eternity.



Crack me open or I’ll go down

on this sinking ship, don’t leave

me to drown

Still the water bears the sound

of my eternal plea

And all I found



And all I will…
