lyrics

I watched all that I had sail away. The bottom of the ship looks like a face with coral lips, laughing in the waves. They smile at me as I sink towards my grave. I called you and you said it saved your life. As a breaking sun decided to end the night, we decided it wasn't best to take our lives. I never convinced myself that we were right. I am I and wish that I wasn't. I will die and whither away to nothing, but I won't mind if you come swim in it with me. I won't mind, you and I, drowning in the deep. Elizabeth, I need your comfort now. I'm confident you'll rescue me somehow. I'm confident I am not the man you need. My arms reach out towards you, anchor around my feet. When the water in my lungs causes me to die, promise me at my funeral you'll dry your eyes. We promised that we wouldn't let us see each other cry. Comfort me at my grave with your lies.
