Cut Me Loose

Lately we've just been going through the motions
Building castles by the ocean
Made of sand, and sinking ever deeper
I kept trying to tell you
That you had to let me go
Cuz for us there was never tomorrow
(Never tomorrow)
(Never tomorrow)

Unfurl your third sheet
And throw caution to the wind
Let go
It's time to sail on

Sail on
Cut my neck or cut me loose now
Sail on
Let's go down together in this maelstrom
Can't hold on to everything that sifts through your hands
Clutch your gold tight when you wash up on the sand
Your darkest depths will try to keep you
But the bottom never has to be the end

The waves swept me away from you
Caught up in the undertow
Tried to swim but wound up sinking
The currents took me where they wanted
Though this place and your face look so familiar
To you I'm but a stranger, and so I've now got to go
(I've got to go)

Unfurl your third sheet
And throw caution to the wind
Let go
It's time to sail on

Sail on
Cut my neck or cut me loose now
Sail on
Let's go down together in this maelstrom
Can't hold on to everything that sifts through your hands
Clutch your gold tight when you wash up on the sand
Your darkest depths will try to keep you
But the bottom never has to be the end

With fingers crossed like our stars
You'll stay forever in my dreams
As the nightmare the haunts me
And the siren that lures me in
You were the storm and you were the lighthouse
You were the ship foundering on the reef
You were the waves and the water that drowned me
You were the air I was dying to breathe

You were the air I was dying to breathe
