Ships Will Sink
And when a cold wind hits your face
It leaves you questioning the race
This was a neighborhood where buildings stood now ruins in their place
We wish we all could hit erase
But we got caught up in the chase
This was a proving ground now burial ground tribute to our mistakes
And if the ship is sinking find another one
Drift safely back to shore
I've been softly dreaming like the other gods
I know you wanted more
And if you see me drinking buy another round
Toast proudly to our hoard
So if the ship is sinking find another one
There's something hanging on the air
A glimpse of hope that's seldom there
It's with a heavy heart that we must part these burdens we can't share
I know you feel it isn't fair
I can see it in your glare
But there's no need to say we cannot stay this all I have to spare
And if the ship is sinking find another one
Drift safely back to shore
I've been softly dreaming like the other gods
I know you wanted more
And if you see me drinking buy another round
Toast proudly to our hoard
So if the ship is sinking find another one
At last the air is standing still
With heavy hearts we've done our part
We see it oh so clear
Last ones left upon the hill
So we can't look back to face the facts
There's nothing left to fear
And if the ship is sinking find another one
Drift safely back to shore
I've been softly dreaming like the other gods
I know you wanted more
And if you see me drinking buy another round
Toast proudly to our hoard
So if the ship is sinking find another one
A shining monument to space
Ripped bare without a trace
There was community now scarcity and ashes take it's place
And when a cold wind hits your face
You know it's time to start the race
It leaves you questioning the race
This was a neighborhood where buildings stood now ruins in their place
We wish we all could hit erase
But we got caught up in the chase
This was a proving ground now burial ground tribute to our mistakes
And if the ship is sinking find another one
Drift safely back to shore
I've been softly dreaming like the other gods
I know you wanted more
And if you see me drinking buy another round
Toast proudly to our hoard
So if the ship is sinking find another one
There's something hanging on the air
A glimpse of hope that's seldom there
It's with a heavy heart that we must part these burdens we can't share
I know you feel it isn't fair
I can see it in your glare
But there's no need to say we cannot stay this all I have to spare
And if the ship is sinking find another one
Drift safely back to shore
I've been softly dreaming like the other gods
I know you wanted more
And if you see me drinking buy another round
Toast proudly to our hoard
So if the ship is sinking find another one
At last the air is standing still
With heavy hearts we've done our part
We see it oh so clear
Last ones left upon the hill
So we can't look back to face the facts
There's nothing left to fear
And if the ship is sinking find another one
Drift safely back to shore
I've been softly dreaming like the other gods
I know you wanted more
And if you see me drinking buy another round
Toast proudly to our hoard
So if the ship is sinking find another one
A shining monument to space
Ripped bare without a trace
There was community now scarcity and ashes take it's place
And when a cold wind hits your face
You know it's time to start the race
