about

3rd release from Sceptres

lyrics

iv got this terrible feeling
that the boat im aboard is about to start sinking
and from loss of limb
and i can no longer swim

as the waves crash down on me i remember a time
where i felt so alive but now i cant deny
while i search for a reason as i sail these seas
time still passes by but the sea will never claim
me

though on the outside im still looking in
on this empty vessel as it starts to sink
im tied to the mast and at the mast ill stay
till the day i admit that im just afraid
of roads once paved
but now they look to change
while they wont be built the same
because the ship will sail again

20 days out to dsea now im somewhere blistered and beat
the thought of you keeps me on my feet
in hopes that we might meet again
by the shore, by where the waves cave in

and no i never want to be alone again
i will never plant my feet on ground and pretend
that life on shore will ever be for me my friend

though on the outside im still looking in
on this empty vessel as it starts to sink
im tied to the mast and at the mast ill stay
till the day i admit that im just afraid
of roads once paved
but now they look to change
while they wont be built the same
because the ship will sail again

my sails maybe broken and tattered
but my resolve has never been greater
