to the hopeless - set sail lyrics

[verse 1]
unwanted and alone
you gotta talk yourself
right through this storm
with every single godd-mn cop-out quote
kneel down and kiss the deck of this sinking boat
that you’re in
embrace it like a friend

you close your eyes and see a muzzle flash
as devils tempt this day to be your last
“come on, it don’t hurt, and it goes fast!”
they say
but you refuse to enter heaven that way

and all your problems start to look like towers
you take them on one by one
with a chisel and hammer
it’s the only thing you know
those words from pulpits never taught you
what to do when you face the impossible

so you pull a bible off the shelf
(what have i got to lose?)
and you beg and plead for heaven’s help
(i might as well ask for a miracle)
while simultaneously saying they’re the reason for this h-ll
(and if i don’t get it, i’ll just k!ll this friendship)
maybe your prayers go unanswered ’cause they contradict themselves
(’cause if it benefits me not, then it’s completely worthless)

[pre-chorus]
and now you’re overwhelmed
with the weight of the world

[chorus]
if all you wanted was a pity party
that’s all you had to say
if all you wanted was a pity party
that’s all you had to say

[verse 2]
so pick yourself up off that ocean floor
come back up to the surface ’cause there’s so much more
to life than what you’ve seen from the nest of a weathered ship
you only hate the horizon ’cause you’ve never seen it bearing gifts

and keep swimming ’cause you’re sure to find land
yeah, you might be tired, but it’s worth it in the end
to finally get to know the comfort of sleeping in your own bed
and dream without the lullaby of waves h-tting your ship

[pre-chorus]
and now you’re overwhelmed
with the weight of the world

[chorus]
if all you wanted was a pity party
that’s all you had to say
if all you wanted was a pity party
that’s all you had to say

[bridge]
but you are not a victim in this life
and i will not stay quiet
while you lead yourself astray
no you are not a victim in this life
and i will not stay quiet
while you lead yourself astray
and you are not a victim in this life
and i will not stay quiet
while you lead yourself astray

[outro]
so set sail and come home
so set sail and come home
so set sail and come home
’cause i miss you dearly, my friend
so set sail and come home
so set sail and come home
so set sail and come home
