This starts and ends with me A long dead branch on my family tree Their faith and my faith Just never seemed to mean the same thing My fondest memory I scared the devil so bad, he sold his soul to me What's next? What's left? What can you do besides die a slow death? You try and you make it work It's not real if it doesn't hurt Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, oh You try to drown, but you're still breathing You try to bite, but you're only teething Don't overthink it We got a ship and the means to sink it I've got a choice to make Almost every second that I'm awake That may be the reason I'd rather be sleeping You try and you make it work It's not real if it doesn't hurt Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, ho You try to drown, but you're still breathing Wanna bite, but you're only teething Don't overthink it We got a ship and the means to sink it Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, oh Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, oh I'm sick of hearing that I'm a victim That not the cure, it's a fucking symptom Try not to jinx it A sinking ship and the means to fix it
