Wye Oak - Sinking Ship lyrics
[Wye Oak - Sinking Ship lyrics]
I sit and count the days
And I keep digging a hole in the ground
When I’d rather be floating away
My mother always helped me
But she’s helped me all she can
And I trusted some in a man I loved
But he took it all and ran
And my baby is not a baby
But he never left the nest
And I can’t remember a day when I haven’t
Been worrying about the rest
And you take my situation
And you shape it in your hand
But until your ship is sinking
You will never understand
That it’s only temporary
These are temporary gains
And there will always be another
Man you didn’t pay
And there will always be another
Thing you didn’t say but not another day
