We're in the deep, under a dark as black as sleep
But I can see a ship of fools is moored to me
Salt in my smile, too much to drink for you
Going overboard is all that we'd ever do
I'm not jumping after, I'm not drowning too
Sink or swim or shark food, we're through
The tide is high, I'm moving on, you're gonna die
I hear you cry, but I won't watch or wave goodbye
Drops in oceans, anchors with chains cut free
Bloated floating corpses is all that we'd ever be
I wish I could save you, but now you are food
Sink or swim we're already screwed
Can't see the sky, can't feel the ground
They smell your blood and circle round
We're going down, we're going down
Sharks by your side, we never learned how to swim
How am I gonna save you when I'd die by diving in?
I'm not jumping after, I'm not drowning too
Sink or swim or shark food we're through
Sink or swim or shark food fuck you
Save me
