Abandon Ship by Less Than Jake Lyrics
[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
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
