I am slowing down
As the years go by
I am sinking
So I trick myself
Like everybody else
The secrets I hide
Twist me inside
They make me weaker
So I trick myself
Like everybody else
I crouch in fear and wait
I'll never feel again...
If only I could remember
Anything at all

I am slowing down
As the years go by
I am sinking
So I trick myself
Like everybody else
The secrets I hide
Twist me inside
They make me weaker
So I trick myself
Like everybody else
I crouch in fear and wait
I'll never feel again
If only I could remember

You're on a wide open ocean
No one around you for miles
You're thinkin' of drinkin' on water
While you're sailing the Nile
No one to stop you on your way
Flyin' by goes a stork
You decide to bring your oars in now
But accidently knock out the cork
Row your boat to shore
'Cause it is leaking and you're still drinking
Unless you cork the hole
You won't be sailing, you'll be sinking
Not knowin' you're sinkin'
You take out a bottle of rum - yum
Swiggin' a drink to the bottom
The bottle reads 'Van Monchinghum'
Oars back into the water
You think you'll sail on
But you can't 'cause your boat contains
Three and a half gallons
Row your boat to shore
'Cause it is leaking and you're still drinking
Unless you cork the hole
You won't be sailing, you'll be sinking
Row your boat to shore
'Cause it is leaking and you're still drinking
Unless you cork the hole
You won't be sailing, you'll be sinking
Row, row, row your boat
And sail your ship to shore
You're barely, barely, barely keeping afloat
Well I hope that you won't drink no more
Row your boat to shore
It is leaking and you're still drinking
Unless you cork the hole
You won't be sailing, you'll be sinking
Row, row, row your boat
And sail your ship to shore
You're barely, barely, barely keeping afloat
Well I hope that you won't drink no more
Row, row, row your boat
And sail your ship to shore (row row row your
boat)
You're barely, barely, barely keeping afloat
(you're barely barely barely)
Well I hope that you won't drink no more
Row, row, row your boat
And sail your ship to shore (row row row your
boat)
You're barely, barely, barely keeping afloat
(you're barely barely barely)

It's not my problem anymore
You see it never really was
So you can stop 'caring' as you call it
and I'll be fine right here
You see that I can play a pretty convincing role
So I don't need you, I don't think I need you
But you see through my forever lies
And you are not believing
And I see in your forever eyes
That you are forever healing
You can't hear what I'm not saying
And I can hold out long enough
Treading water I keep from sinking
I'm not one for reaching
You see that I can play a pretty convincing role
So I don't need you, I don't think I need you
Deny myself, deny my heart
Deny your hand, deny your help
and you offer me eternity
but why should I buy that?
You see that I can play a pretty convincing role

Stranger the darkness a hint of perfume
Rising from your lips towards the window
The sunlight is twisting lines in my eyes
Leaving me far too dizzy, to see
What am I supposed to do?
When I feel nothing, but I want to?
What am I supposed to say?
No one ever listens, anyway
I want to forgive, and I want to forget
But I can't seem to break out of this, yet
As I'm haunted by heartache and visions of things
That widens, the gulf, between us
What am I supposed to do?
When I feel nothing, but I want to?
What am I supposed to say?

Stranger the darkness a hint of perfume
Rising from your lips towards the window
The sunlight is twisting lines in my eyes
Leaving me far too dizzy, to see
What am I supposed to do?
When I feel nothing, but I want to?
What am I supposed to say?
No one ever listens, anyway
I want to forgive, and I want to forget
But I can't seem to break out of this, yet
As I'm haunted by heartache and visions of things
That widens, the gulf, between us
What am I supposed to do?
When I feel nothing, but I want to?

When I think of the goodness of Jesus
And all He has done for me
My soul cries out Hallelujah
Thank God for saving me
[Hook:]
I was (sinking so deep in sin)
And so (very deeply stained within)
But God, Oh but God
He's been good
[Bridge:]
Everyday with Jesus
Is sweeter than the day before
Everyday with Jesus
I love Him more and more
[Hook:]
I was (sinking so deep in sin)
And so (very deeply stained within)
But God, Oh but God
He's been good
[Vamp:]
God's been so good to me

Standing in the back of the line
I feel the others try to push me
Down and keep it away from me, yea
Grabbing at the one thing that I know is mine
Can't you see me with my head to the floor?
Feel the recklessness of absolute desperation
Valued sentimental pieces of the life
I thought I held in my hands
Why do I always try
To better what I am?
Can't I realize
That I've always been sinking?
Failing everyday
It only helps to aggravate
The sickenin' feeling
Inside that won't go away
Fall down
Pick yourself up and fall down
Do wait for my cup and fall down
This is what it's like to be me, me
Can't you see what I see?
Why do I always try
To better what I am?
Can't I realize
That I've always been sinking?
Why do I always try
To better what I am?
Can't I realize
That I've always been sinking?
What I am is what I feel
But what I feel is nothing real
What I know is all I want
Is to be saved from this spot
To be saved from this spot
Is to be saved from this spot
Why do I always try
To better what I am?
Can't I realize
That I've always been sinking?
Why do I always try
To better what I am?
Can't I realize

I get the feeling that I'm sinking in you. Your hands go through me as I'm trying to think back on a better time. Like watching water in a rising tide. You'd not know me right now, you'd think that I was a man wanting to drown. Shaking words in my fists, pointing to all of the things that I won't resist. Pouring out my heart and pouring one more drink to keep it calm. Because I think I've hit the brink and this is all I can take, to keep going on.

Sinking Wanting Thinking Sinking all the while It hurts to be alone. When it hurts to be alone. When it's cold outside When it's cold inside When it hurts to be alone It hurts to be alone It hurts to be alone. When it hurts to be alone. When I'm feeling it When I'm down and out When I'm feeling it When I'm down and out It hurts to be alone. When it hurts to be alone. All torn up All torn down Yeah I'm thinking that I'm sinking and I'm sinking all the while It hurts to be alone. When it hurts to be alone. Falling down Falling down I stand up To fall back down It hurts to be alone. When it hurts to be alone. Caving in Caving in I think my heart Is caving in It hurts to be alone. When it hurts to be alone. Dead air Dead phone Dead quiet Sinking all the while It hurts to be alone. When it hurts to be alone. Writhing my hands Grinding my teeth Staring at the floor Sinking all the while It hurts to be alone. When it hurts to be alone. Cutting my teeth on the blues soul sinking to the bottom of my shoes Thinking my life's a waiting Game Staring at my grave and feeling the same It hurts to be alone. When it hurts to be alone. When I want what I want When I want what I want When I need it I need it It hurts to be alone. When it hurts to be alone. When all I need Is all I need When I need it I need it It hurts to be alone. When it hurts to be alone. Sinking Sinking Sinking Sinking.

The X-ray is on
They see through my mind
And I can hear you say stop
(Why?... Why?...)
Their T.V. is wrong
My feelings are backwards
And I can hear you say stop
(Why?... Why?...)
Why do I think I'm sinking?
(Why?... Why?...)
Why do I think I'm losing?
I'm a beautiful girl you cannot solve
And I haven't figured out myself
A beautiful girl you cannot hold
You won't make the picture clear
You won't find a reason why
I'm here
It's taking too long
For you to detect me
I can still hear you say stop
(Why?... Why?...)
Why do I think I'm sinking?
(Why?... Why?...)
Why do I think I'm losing?
I'm a beautiful girl you cannot solve
It's time that I figure out myself
A beautiful girl you cannot hold
Getting hard to understand
The frequency is breaking up
Think I'm underneath her now
The walls are closing in on everything
Tied up in your body cables
Swimming in all your fluid motions
Baby lotion rubbed in my mind just one more time
Just one more time
Just one more time
You won't see through my mind any more
So cold... so cold... yeah
Won't flow... won't flow... yeah
On hold... on hold... yeah

We ain't seen land for 13 months
The water's running dry
The Captains drunk, stoned in his bunk
I seen the bosun gettm the rum
that came from a bottle now long gone
St Chr
The Albatross flew across the bow
Below ding high
My mouth so dry from the rum
That came from a bottle now long gone
St Christopher if you hear this now
Give us hope to carry on
The albatross flew across the bow
Below deck the captain roared
Bring me my gun
I want Opium
Stoned he shot the bird
When the wind died down the only sound
Was the whisper of his dying words
Beware don't stare at the Marie Celeste
This quest of ours is cursed
The full moon light burned bright as fire
As fever gripped the crew
To the east Ahab's screams
Split the winding sheet in two
To the west six silouettes
Hung sailors now long gone
We prayed that night that in the morning light
We'd all be blown to kingdom come
Just as we started sinking
The harbour lights came on
Arms of angels carried us
From the rocks we brokblown to kingdom come
Just as we started sinking
The harbour lights came on
Arms of angels carried us
From the rock we broke upon
As we swam into the still waters
The band began to play
I heard again that sweet refrain
Lord 0 happy day

These feelings don't have any windows
But these feelings are feelings only God knows
As the figures fade into the distance
You're at home now, need for resistance
Marble exterior so cold
But like magic your soul puts things on hold
The truth is you've heard it all before
Oh, these feelings, the sea just brings you more
And you sink further into yourself
And you think only of yourself
And you sink further into yourself
When you sink wanting to be someone else
If this body, is but a grain of sand
Then friend, I need to take your hand
But these feelings have too many windows
But these windows are guarded by the angels
And you sink further into yourself
And you think only of yourself
And you sink further into yourself
And you sink wanting to be someone else
And you sink further into yourself

Slash and burn
Insensitive
It comes all the way around and back again
Stunning move to make amends
Could have been a little more than faking it
You got what you want
You got what you need
You've got everything but me
Here comes the pay-off
What are you made of
You're empty
You're hollow
You're sinking fast (2x)
Cut and past
To move the men
I don't know who you are now or where you've been
Thought I knew everything
Should have seen that guilty look
Deception
You got what you want
You got what you need
You've got everything but me
Here comes the pay-off
What are you made of
You're empty
You're hollow
You're sinking fast (2x)
Sinking fast...
You're sinking fast
You're sinking fast
Sinking fast
You're sinking fast
You're sinking... (fast)
Here comes the pay-off
What are you made of
You're empty
You're hollow
You're sinking fast (2x)
(Here comes the pay-off) Here comes the pay-off
(Here comes the pay-off) What are you made of
You're empty
You're hollow

When I think of the goodness of Jesus
And all He has done for me
My soul cries out Hallelujah
Thank God for saving me
(Hook)
I was (sinking so deep in sin)
And so (very deeply stained within)
But God, Oh but God
He’s been good
(Bridge)
Everyday with Jesus
Is sweeter than the day before
Everyday with Jesus
I love Him more and more
(Hook)
I was (sinking so deep in sin)

(Vamp)
God’s been so good to me

This is the only thing I have worth holding onto. I have condensed my past to fit the lines on the pages that no one will ever see. But still I fight, day after day. ‘Cause this is all I’ve ever wanted my life to be and I push everything I’ve ever loved away to keep myself from sinking. If I find the bad in everything, I can never be attached. I’m trying to find a balance, trying to find my way, and every choice I’ve ever made brings me anywhere but home. But I’ve welcomed sacrifice with open arms, and I will never regret my decision. This is the only thing I have worth holding on to. This is the only thing that makes me feel alive. I’ve simply been searching for the right place to rest my head. I’m searching for common ground between all that I am, and all that you need me to be. I’ve seen a future and want nothing to do with it. A constant campaign to impress those who never ever cared. I’m struggling but I won’t allow myself to sink. You know where to find me. I keep my composure and assume my place, in front of the people I love most. You’re the reason why we’re here. I’m struggling, but I won’t allow myself to sink.

it's so hard to make an effort to keep my surroundings in line. when sometimes, i can't do it for myself. i confess, i'm not the man i proclaim. my feet are sinking into the mire beneath me. i can't help but notice the endless battle for air while being swept by the tides of complacency. my knowledge is accountability. and i have to do something. blinded by the plank in my eye. i cannot guide anyone. i have to do something. this lonely vessel is surely sinking. i'm surely sinking. take me, if it means they die to themselves. only to raise up their new lives. stop me in my tracks if it will shake them. stop me. we are nothing without each other.

This is the worst day of my life
I can't hold back what's on my mind
I can't breathe when I look at you
And it's so hard to go on
And I know you know the feeling
When everything just seems to lose it's meaning
And I know you know the feeling
Sometimes I have to tell my friends
To pick me up and dust me off again
This is my philosophy
And you can't help who you are
Well I just can't believe it, can you?
That there's nothing we can do
To make right what we've done wrong
And make up for the time long gone
And I know you know the feeling
When everything just seems to lose it's meaning
And I know you know the feeling
Some say it's written in the stars
Your astrology
What you're supposed to be
You can't help who you are
Well I just can't believe it, can you?
(Can't believe it can you)
That there's nothing we can do
(Nothing we can do)
To make right what we've done wrong
(Right what we've done wrong)
And make up for time long gone
(Up for time long gone)

When I look out at the world tonight
I think that I would rather die
But the answer that is sinking in
is one you won't believe in
I told you this so many times before
And I feel like breaking down
I'd like to turn the world around somehow
But if you can could ask me
how can I believe in what I can't decide
I think that you could never understand
And I know it's easy to decieve
but I won't ask you to believe how things
have gotten so far out of control.
And it feels like breaking down
got to turn the world around somehow
Who will catch you when you fall
when you're world is spinning round
And I wish I could know how
cos my world is sinking down.
When I look at all the things
I see it's always lonley being free
I wonder why we always feel alone
And for every star out in the sky
is one more reason left to die
Sometimes its hard enough just to believe.
And if you feel like breaking down
got to turn the world around somehow
Who will catch you when you fall
when you're world is sinking down
And I wish I could know how
