Sink Songtext

von Brand New

I don't want to let you go,
But it hurts my hands to hold the rope.
I won't be such an easy mark,
You're no better than they say!

And all the candles on the cake
All set fire to the gate.
Turn the cannons towards the boat
Men were drowning in the moat!
It was the end of all the rowers oars!

If you call then I'm coming to get you.
If you call then I'm coming, now.
If you call then I'm coming to get you.
But you want to sink, so I'm gonna let you.

All I want's some earth and seed
To only grow the things I need
But first I must find my way back
And you go lay down on the track!

In youth I had an even keel
But now I'm not sure what is real.
It's taken me this long to learn
That every day you dig worms,
And once they're gone they don't return!

If you call then I'm coming to get you.
If you call then I'm coming, now.
If you call then I'm coming to get you.
But you want to sink, so I'm gonna let you.
I'm coming to get you.
If you call then I'm coming to get you.
If you call then I'm coming to get you.
But you want to sink, so I'm gonna let you.
Then the fire snuck into your bedroom,
Now I'm falling asleep to forget you.

How darkly the dark hand met his end.
He was withered and bony, exposed for a phony.
But we heed the last words that he penned,
"Haste to disgrace the traitor. Do not wait till later."

I don't think that you've got to pretend,
I see God in birds and Satan in long words.
But I know what you need in a friend.
So now when I leave you, I hope I won't see you.

How darkly the dark hand met his end.
He was withered and bony, exposed for a phony.
But we heed the last words that he penned,
"Haste to disgrace the traitor. Do not wait till later."

If you call then I'm coming to get you.
If you call then I'm coming, now.
If you call then I'm coming to get you.
But you want to sink, so I'm gonna let you.
I'm coming to get you.
If you call then I'm coming, now.
If you call then I'm coming to get you.
But you want to sink, so I'm gonna let you.
Then the fire snuck into your bedroom,
Now I'm falling asleep to forget you.
