Blackbeard, the Sinking


I owe you several apologies
I was dreaming of better days
I wash one's dirty laundry in a song nobody cares
My hands shake, shaking these days
I feel so close to the end
My heart is growing old, the clock ticks by
Staring at the ship starting to sink

Oh where you off to?
I'm covered in dust of my days
I was dreaming of you
Torn into pieces, now my heart's healed
This silhouette is unfamiliar
You got the part so show me what you got

Why do you lose your ways?
I'm like this everyday
I just follow the one who leads us the wrong way
I consider myself somewhere between love and anger

Suffocating on your jaded ways
You suck at being the anchor
Can't you hear our needs or what?
Don't go down with the ship
With wind in it's sails, set the rudder
Play the part you chose, please don't go down

My heart is growing old, the clock ticks by
Staring at the ship starting to sink
I got old and grey, now a mother
Always trying to better than how you lead
