When Lost At Sea Lyrics
We got arrested on
Aberdeen. We had
Empty hands. We had
Mouths to feed.
So I
Put my hands up and begged release
And now, Julia, it seems
That our honesty was brief.
We got lost when we
Left our homes. We were
High again and went
Out to score, and I
Found myself at your brother's door,
And I'd
Pondered all the rent.
Well, I ain't been back there since.
Well, I woke up on my
Hands and knees. Well, the
Night was cold and I
Began to see
That I'd
Pinned myself to another name that had
Sold me out before,
And had never shown remorse.
So many years, I've been
Bought and sold. Well, I
Told myself I'd take the
Higher road, so I
Dressed myself in your brother's clothes
And I walked across their hands.
I left nothing up to chance.
