Lyrics

Are we still connected or was it just a plot
To get yourself off, and hope that I'm not
Listening when it happens
(She said)
I can't begin to say how sorry I am
I never meant for this to happen
The sun goes down, the knives come out.

I'm on the island you left me on
Such a sickening strip of sand;
No lifeboats, no getting off

We give up, we give in, we take what we can;
We're trapped deep without a second chance
We give up, we give in, withought blinking;
Jesus christ, what was I thinking?

Oh these lungs desperatley filled by someone
Starving and sad
Because you know your lover
Won't be back
All these words , useless and absurd
Such a sight of this
Makes the harbor and the water sick

Shall I stay rejected or end up drunk and soft
Like a bitter old man sunk in his veins
Trying not to get caught
(He says)
I know you didn't miss the sound that I made;
It's simple,and sad, and easy to fake
The liquids down, the knives come out

I'm on the island you left me on
Such a sickening strip of sand;
No lifeboats, no getting off

We give up, we give in, we take what we can;
We're trapped deep without a second chance
We give up, we give in, withought thinking;
I'll be there the night you go down

Oh these lungs desperatley filled by someone
Starving and sad
Because you know your lover
Won't be back
All these words , useless and absurd
Such a sight of this
Makes the harbor and the water sick

I understand your reasons
For this awkward dance
I'd leave me, too
If I thought I had the slightest chance

I cry aloud to these sheets they grip back tight
I fall asleep to the sound of my own life
If I drink this bottle fast enough
I might get lucky and won't wake up. [x2]
