Abandon Ship

amazing song :) i reckon it's about a relationship going wrong or something like the ship is the relationship

• he's the captain but yeah :)

'+ he's the captain '

hahahahaha, sorry but that sounds a little bit dirty.

i reckon it's about u.s.s indianapolis, the song is from a sailor's perspective directing "never loved you anyway" at his country / govt (america)

or it's from the perpective of captain mcvay

most likely the latter

yer deffo bout a relationship and hes lost him self because he is so into her?

I don't find that song anywhere I wanna hear it outside MTV2 where can I download it I dont find it on my emule? or just hear it?

@ jkenny, gallows are from watford in england, so its not likely that hes going to be singing about america as his country ;)

Also, its the River Styx, not the River Sticks. In ancient Greek mythology the River Styx was the river on which the dead were carried to enter Hades (the underworld).

I reckon its sort of a diary about a relationship..and that each paragraph represents a new entry where it just keeps going wrong. Then he realises its soon to be over and is helpless to any attempts to keep it going before it eventually dies and leaves him broken hearted.

The ship is the UK,the captain is blair? just about what a state he has left us in perhaps. he's pretty much sunk the ship.

if its about a 'relationship' i'd be disappointed as they as supposed to be a punk band. mind you they are signed to fucking giant corporation warner bros.
