ryan adams - sink ships lyrics
sun that falls
on your hands
as you type;
just something
in my head
standing
in this empty sp-ce
your desk is gone
the wall is still
from where it went
this is position
is not open now
for applicants
the application forms
get shredded
there was faulty wording
in the doc-ment
i can still hear you laughing
coming up the rickety stairs
laughing as the springtime
filled your longs with air
grey smoke rung out
like the patches of your hair
like violets
like birds inside the bells
break those prows
in the back of my mind
while the sun is out;
no, it’s still up
and the light is shining
it’s season’s push and pull
and all to get us through
well my mind is open now;
like the door to an empty room
this position is not open now
for applicants
the application forms
get shredded
there was faulty
wording in the doc-ment
i can still hear you laughing
coming up the rickety stairs
laughing as the springtime
filled your longs with air
grey smoke rung out
like the patches of your hair
like violets
like birds inside the bells
if somehow i had known
i’d have rather gone
down with the ship
than be without you
if only for the chance
to hold your hand;
to be your friend
if never for the last time
i would’ve rather
gone down in this
the war is over
the war is over
the war is over
and i’m waiting
in the sinking ships
if only i had known
