Once Like You Lyrics
And I felt the suck from a vampire teething
opiate love and I collapse
And I am afraid if I sleep you’ll never love me
Now you don’t have to answer that
What did you think you’d say to convince me to listen
Well I am the one that talks to walls instead of men
And after its done and buried I will haunt our children
Till they believe there’s no God to stop my plan
yeah
When I was young I had dreams of being a someone
Tied up in fictions that’s the sun
Blinded my eyes and I was lost for most last summer
It doesn’t matter much I still feel the same
And I was a father once like you I was misguided
Stabbing a fork into my palm to see your plan
doesn’t it make you sick to know that you are causing
30 or so mens death that don’t deserve to die
So I will lie
opiate love and I collapse
And I am afraid if I sleep you’ll never love me
Now you don’t have to answer that
Well I am the one that talks to walls instead of men
And after its done and buried I will haunt our children
Till they believe there’s no God to stop my plan
yeah
When I was young I had dreams of being a someone
Tied up in fictions that’s the sun
Blinded my eyes and I was lost for most last summer
It doesn’t matter much I still feel the same
Stabbing a fork into my palm to see your plan
doesn’t it make you sick to know that you are causing
30 or so mens death that don’t deserve to die
So I will lie

The last line makes me think he's considering cause the ship to wreck somehow, because of his hurt, pain, anguish, etc. Maybe the 30 innocent men are the crew?
i think the "30 men" are the crew, too. and i think in the last part, he is talking to god, saying, "don't you feel bad for killing all those men?" because since god has control of everything, the ocean sinking the boat can be looked at like god sunk the boat.

Good song. I think he says Blinded my eyes and I was lost for most <i>last</i> summer.
Also, I think he says, "Stabbing a fork into my palm to see your plan."
I think it starts with: And I felt the suck from a vampire teething
This song kinda confuses me.. it seems like he switches up who he's talking to.
First stanza, maybe talking to God? Maybe even talking to Anna? Second stanza is probably Anna because he says "our children." Third stanza again, it could go either way. But then the last stanza is most likely talking to God... "I was a father once like you," "your plan," "causing ... men's death."
Any ideas?
The second line is: Opiate love and I collapse
