This Ship Is Going Down Lyrics & Tabs by Attalus
This Ship Is Going Down
guitar chords lyrics
this sleeping city's going down tonight.
the tempest will swallow us before we open up our eyes.
but we tell ourselves that we'll be safe inside.
oh no – don't tell me you believed the lies.
and we would see it if we'd just wake up.
Justice will come.
we must wake up.
take my hand and wave them goodbye.
but don't look back.
don't look back.
because you might catch fire.
take my word.
don't swallow their lies.
the door is open tonight.
it's a dog-eat-dog world or so they say.
so we flash our teeth at those we meet because if we're not the hunter we will be the prey.
if it's survival of the fittest I guess the only winner is the one who beats the grave.
but we're all helpless in the waves.
and we would see it if we'd just wake up (Justice will come).
we must wake up.
this ship is going down but you don't have to sink with the rest of them.
don't leave it up to fate.
tomorrow is too late.
come while there's still a choice to make.
this ship is sinking.
o man tell me what are you thinking?
we can't escape the waves.
these walls will be our grave.
the Tide is coming.
o man what wrecks are we becoming?
dive in the Sea of Grace.
before It changes face.
the sky is turning black – a sign that Justice is at hand.
will you embrace the Sea?
or will you face It like a man?
this ship is going down.
the time will come to pay your debt.
The Sea will be your Judge but will It be your Advocate?
lift your eyes.
wake o sleeper come to life.
don't close your eyes.
wake o sleeper come to life.
