Marching along,
Like a good soldier does,
I'm setting sail,
With anchors holding me down,
Pack up my bags,
Stow them away (Stow them away),
I'm bidding farewell to all that is safe,

Will I come up for air?
Come up for air,
After a while the current is calling me,
Lulling me, waving me goodbye,
I'm out here alone,
Oh God can you save me now?
Sinking, my heart turns to stone,

Withering away,
A shrinking violet dies,
So full of life,
These lights have dried me out,
Into the sea,
I needed a drink,
I never thought this would consume me whole,

Will I come up for air?
Come up for air,
After a while, the current is calling me,
Lulling me, waving goodbye,
I'm out here alone,
Oh God can you save me now? (Save me now)
Sinking, my heart turns to stone (Turns to stone, turns to stone),
Sinking, my heart turns to stone

Save me, take me home,
Over and over again,
Save me, take me home,
Wishing that this all would end,

Save me, take me home,
Over and over again,
Save me, take me home,
Wishing that this all would end,

After a while, the current is calling me,
Lulling me, waving goodbye,
I'm out here alone,
Oh God can you save me now? (Save me now)
Sinking my heart turns to stone

After a while, the current is calling me,
Lulling me, waving goodbye!
I'm out here alone,
Oh God can you save me now?
Sinking my heart turns to stone (Turns to stone),
Sinking my heart turns to stone.

Save me, take me home,
Will I come up for air? Will I come up for air?
Save me, take me home,
Will I come up for air? Will I come up for air?

Save me, take me home,
Over and over again,
Save me, take me home,
Wishing that this, wishing that all this would end

    I dont know but how many people here are hoping that they go back to their old sound? huh? I mean I like them still but honestly i wish they went back to their Curse days or if thats to much atleast go back to Death-Grip On Yesterday days i loved that album i thought it was perfect cause it had a sort of even distribution of screaming and vocals. But thats just me. Who else agrees with me?
