    Default El Salvador, Dear Salvatore

    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!!
