to really understand this song you'd have to read my first song "A Letter From My Conscience", seeing as the end of this song pertains to it. This is a rough copy of it and i still have editing to do. Any opinions would help my thinking process speed up a bit. Thanks, -TPS
This course is colored in coordinates
We’re anchored by ordinance
We’re cast off and cast aways
Counting on trade winds to show us a shoreline
I wish I could begin
To tell you how we got this point
But honestly I don’t know myself
[Anchors away! Throw them overboard!]
[Anchors away! Throw them overboard!]
With open arms
The current embraces us
We’re swept away
Out of style
And out of ways to keep ourselves afloat
Sinking in accordance with the plan that he wrote
Struggling to breathe
As the current and the Riptides bury me
I see your face
Floating at the bottom of the sea
Face down next to me
We always promised we would take this to our graves
But now you’re giving it away
[You’re giving us away!]
I am a machine!
With a conscience like clockwork
And a body of recycled parts
You’re a disappointment
A failing routine
A failure!
[But these ties on my ankles can’t keep me from you]
[He was right!]
I’ve never been alive!!
I’ve never seen through open eyes!!
[He was right!!]
I’ve never been alive!!
I’ve never seen through open eyes!!
I’ve never been alive!!
