did you get my email?
i was just asking why i'm this way and not another way
anways i hope you're good
i don't think i don't think i don't think i'm thinking right
if i’m not there who is going to find out that the two ships have passed in the night
oh the lighthouse doesn’t shine like it used to
i heard they tore it down to make room for an amusement park
where airplanes take you from one mall to another
it costs a lifetime and a half just to recover
what good is a piece of mind when i am losing mine?
if i’m not there who is going to ask the captain what he has hidden in his pockets?
my bet is on a losing lottery ticket
and three buttons that belong to his coat
the one that he forgot at home
his wife irons it every single day wondering when he’ll return
she should know by now that the man belongs to sea
she’ll see but by it’ll be too late to leave
anyways anyways ANYWAYS
so how are you?
did i ask you that that yet?
if i’m not there who is going to point out that all of the water is sinking underneath of itself
it’s screaming for help and somebody oughta jump in but i never really learned to swim so it can’t be me don’t you believe i’ve said it so many times can’t we agree that i would most certainly die
if i’m not there who is going to play the violin
as the ship is going down and everybody else is jumping in
who’s going to sing the song? who’s going to call it out?
that we lived for the weekend when we were always meant to drown
