Shipwrecked

Every time that I can't stop my mind from wandering to you
My body can't find the strength to move
And I been waitin' for a passin' vessel
But the stress'll overcome me as the time slips away from me
This island isn't as kind as it seems
No one but a ghost for company

I keep howlin' to the open sea, spellin' "help" out on the beach
If hunger doesn't kill me, heartache will
If I had any rum to forget you with, I'd drink myself halfway to death
I think I'm shipwrecked somewhere worse than Hell
So if you get this message in a bottle, could you send the bottle back filled?

All the days have slowly counted down like chalk on a cell wall
I never thought it would be like this
When I was young I dreamt of life at sea
I always thought it'd be sweet, rollin' on the briny deep
But I battened down the hatches and the stays
And no one's seen me since I left the bay

I keep howlin' to the open sea, spellin' "help" out on the beach
If hunger doesn't kill me, heartache will
If I had any rum to forget you with, I'd drink myself halfway to death
I think I'm shipwrecked somewhere worse than Hell
So if you get this message in a bottle, could you send the bottle back filled?

The wind's starting to blow
It's whisper haunts the coast
And I'm just skin and bones
Fit to be a shiphand on the crew of Davy Jones

I keep howlin' to the open sea, spellin' "help" out on the beach
If hunger doesn't kill me, heartache will
If I had any rum to forget you with, I'd drink myself halfway to death
I think I'm shipwrecked somewhere worse than Hell
So if you get this message in a bottle, could you send the bottle back filled?
