Anchoring The Ages

oh captain, i’ve seen it
this ship will be your tomb
i’ll tell the men to swim towards shore
this ship will be your tomb
swimming in disaster
counting rifts and countless gifts
but i can’t, i can’t.
i can’t, i can’t–wait to hold you down
(swimming in a lover’s room,
hid from your mistakes)

come, hell or high water captain
i swear i won’t let her change me
you’re just short of treasure, siren
though your voice is golden baby

oh siren, i’ve heard you
drawing men to see
but i can’t, i can’t.
i can’t, i can’t–wait to hold you down
(swimming in a lover’s room,
hid from your mistakes.
and i cannot remember when
but i’ll do whatever it takes)

come, hell or high water captain
i swear i won’t let her change me
you’re just short of treasure, siren
though your voice is golden baby

fuck you.
