Battleship Lyrics

i can't eat, i can't sleep
i'm looking up at the satellites
where did we go wrong this time, whoa

did you think this through
do you have the facts
oh i'm betting on a fight another heart attack

all translation is lost
i'm so exhausted, i'm coming undone

sinking like a battleship
am i ever gonna get through this
we're standing on a fault line
oh this happens all the time

well i can't think
i'm losing sleep
i'm staring up at the stars tonight
where did we go wrong this time, whoa

sinking like a battleship
am i ever gonna get through this
we're standing on a fault line
oh this happens all the time
we're sinking like a battleship

we're sinking like a stone
we're barely hanging on
we're sinking like a stone
we're barely hanging on

sinking like a battleship
am i ever gonna get through this
we're standing on a fault line
oh this happens all the time
we're sinking like a battleship

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
