Abandon Ship by Less Than Jake Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2008

[Verse 1]
Give me some religion, pass the wine
'Cause this time I can't
Hold it in like I always did
Give me some more TV, make it loud
Make believe I'm in
Desperate need for some company
Attention, this is not a test
Help me get this moving target
Off my chest from my closest friends
Save me from this hopelessness
Talk some sense into this head
I'll stop this endless SOS

[Chorus]
Treading water with weights around my neck
A shipwreck of reckless accidents
Overboard and I'm about to quit
Head first, high dive in this deep end
Abandon ship 'cause it's sinking way too quick
[Verse 2]
Give me some forgiveness, and I'll try
'Cause this time if I
Pull the pin, I'll be blown to bits
Give me some more music
I'll sit and read the lyrics like
A bible, a gospel, a sing-along
Attention, this is not a test
Swim to shore before unconsciousness
My hands feel like they're made of bricks
Save me from my recklessness
Talk some sense into this head
I'll stop this endless SOS

[Chorus]
Treading water with weights around my neck
A shipwreck of reckless accidents
Overboard and I'm about to quit
Head first, high dive in this deep end
Abandon ship 'cause it's sinking way too quick

[Bridge]
I can't listen to all the reasons
I just need one more thing to believe in
The one thing that will keep me breathing
I'll kiss the dirt when I hit dry land
[Chorus]
Treading water with weights around my neck
A shipwreck of reckless accidents
Overboard and I'm about to quit
Head first, high dive in this deep end
Abandon ship 'cause it's sinking way too quick
