Lyrics
Well, humankind
He draws a line
He draws a noose
Parables and truths
Do you remember the water
Pour over you
When I jumped in
You jumped in too
Now songs tell me
"Walk like a man"
But every time I do
I keep falling down
Now I sing with my eyes wide open
Because I can't bare to close them these days
And I've got nothing here left to remind me
I'm the wreck of a ship
Tossed on the waves
I'm the wreck of a ship
Tossed on the waves
I pull a scarf
Over my head
Pull my heart
Across the forest
Sky of stars
Leaves on the fire
Smoky breath
I wish it was summer
Another place
Another time
The night was yours
And you were mine
Now I sing with my eyes wide open
Because I can't bare to close them these days
And I've got nothing here left to remind me
I'm the wreck of a ship
Tossed on the waves
I'm the wreck of a ship
Tossed on the waves
I zip a coat
Up to my chin
Kill the cold
I can't let in
Too many thoughts
Too many times
Clouds and comets
And worlds to find
Always a home
Always the wind
Always in love songs
It has to end
Now I sing with my eyes wide open
Because I can't bare to close them these days
And I've got nothing here left to remind me
I'm the wreck of a ship
Tossed on the waves
And now I sing with my eyes wide open
Because I can't bare to close them these days
And I've got nothing here left to remind me
I'm the wreck of a ship
Tossed on the waves
I'm the wreck of a ship
