mark another against yourself
in a war i’m trying so hard to find
what i gave up myself
it’s so hard to find
when you're very far from home
so alone
and all these crowds
could never hope to have what i hold
so alone
and i’ll drown
but i’ll never know
what it’s like
mark another against yourself
you’re not the person who i thought you were
so sick inside, you tried to hide
what you gave up yourself
something strong, holding on
pulling on my neck
begging me to slowly come back home
and finally see
that all this time
you were the only one
that betraying me
i couldn’t see
i was blinded by my insecurities
mark another against yourself
in a war i’m trying so hard to find
what i gave up myself
it’s so hard to find
when you're very far from home

all hands, set a course straight for that damn gale's heart
i know, good intentions never get too far
and your stare, will tear right through these weathered decks
but i didn't want, to be the one who orders you to wreck
not quite sure where this is heading
way out past where sky greets sea
a gold coast welcomes all the weary
hope i find my home this way
grab hold, her main mast's worn and giving way
these rogue waves, have given more than this old ship can take
now breathe in, and let the cold and darkness take me home
or hold on, and make my way to the uncharted coast
not quite sure where this is heading
way out past where sky greets sea
...but i couldn't see what you saw in me
saw in me...
saw in me...
not quite sure where this is heading
way out past where sky greets sea
a gold coast welcomes all the weary
hope i find my home this way
not quite sure where this is heading
(gold coasts welcome..)
way out past where sky greets sea
(gold coasts welcome..)
a gold coast welcomes all the weary
(gold coasts welcome..)
hope I find my home this way

are you still alive?
still singing your rejoice?
it’s been four years now
since i first heard your voice
everything you said
still rings in my ears
the promises that you made
the way you just disappeared
looking back now
so much i could do
a few words here and there
is what drove me from you
now i’m digging myself
deeper than before
but i can’t stop now
because the bottom’s too close
i’m lost in a fog
it’s too hard to tell
if i can make it through this
then i can make it through hell
my anchor line’s been cut
now i’m drifting free
baby, if i was stronger
maybe i’d fight the sea
but i can’t

sky is crimson, the sun’s gonna drown
water in three holds, the ships going down
i wear my life around my neck
20 years at sea, but it’s time to rest
the depths are calling my name
i hear them every night and day
“come home, where it’s dark and it’s cold
and the light’s as black as your soul”
last night, i saw myself asleep
drifting out to sea
turns out, you’re the only one i need
but you’re the furthest thing from me
i lied if i said i wanted love
already had it, but it’s come and gone
the loss of it is what drove me out to sea
when i’m grounded i can hardly breathe
the rogues are washing me clean
my soul will finally be free
the salt wrings me of my sins
oh god i can finally feel again
last night i saw myself asleep
and you came back to me
but everything had changed
nothing was the same
we were never meant to be
