city of salt - sinking ships lyrics

Loading...

this life ain’t no one’s friend
can’t find no truth but this noise in my head
and if i try, if i compromise
would i find my way back home?

see, i carried their spirits three
up over mountains and down to the sea
and there they died, swallowed with the tide
and lord, i felt my heart

this life is a sinking ship
yeah, we got freedom, but that don’t mean shit
when will we learn that the earth will turn
long after we’re dead?

and i carry my father’s name
but what does that mean if we don’t talk the same?
i keep picturing coffins and empty graves
for all my blood to take

but i did not ask you to fear for my soul
did you think we were part of a whole?
and i can’t find a reason that doesn’t sound old
oh my soul!

this life is a burning book
the pages will turn, but we just end up cooked
the shape of the flame, oh it felt the same
in every hand i shook

and i carry my bottled rage
i labor in fear cuz’ i don’t know my name
when will i learn that the earth will turn
regardless who’s been blamed?

but i did not come hear to bury my song
did you think we could weed out this wrong?
and i can’t find a bible to help push along
oh my song!

this life ain’t no one’s friend
can’t find no truth but this noise in my head
and if i try, if i compromise
would i find my way back home?
