Don't let me shut this light

For the killer in my head

Needs a signal to prove that I am not dead just yet

But burned out and going blue

The salt is set with open wounds

Doused and fresh



I can open my eyes for a second

And hope the sails catch us

I can open my eyes for a second

And hope that you just won't hear this



A shipwreck

An anchor

A slowly sinking sailor

Somehow, someway

Someones bound to stay 

It's in this grave we lay

Watery and saved



Just act as if I'm gone

And decaying in my room

I hold a shadow as close as a silver ghost

Grasps onto an image known to him as you

At this fast rate, I'll be lucky if I'm dead by morning



I can open my eyes for a second

And hope the sails catch us

I can open my eyes for a second

And hope that you just won't hear this



A shipwreck

An anchor

A slowly sinking sailor

Somehow, someway

Someones bound to stay 

It's in this grave we lay

Watery and saved

One touch one taste

It's enough to make you stay away



Tonight I'm spent

Pretend this razor is your lips

You're finding ways to kiss

(Ways to kiss me)

Deeply on the wrists



I loved what I had

It's impossible to get it back

I loved what I had

It's impossible to get that back



It's in this grave we lay

Watery and saved

(To get that back)

It's in this grave we lay

I hope that you just won't hear this
