Parley Lyrics
So fire at will
give me one last chance to make it through
it's sink or swim, we're at the end
I can see for miles over the ocean
The castle walls are burning down
We've got to find our way out
So shed some blood and sink some ships
take all their gold, let us fight with them
we'll walk the plank, it seems like miles
Hear the cannons blow
it's sink or swim, we're at the end
I can see for miles over the ocean
The castle walls are burning down
We've got to find our way out
i've got to find a way I've got to find a way
it's sink or swim, we're at the end
I can see for miles over the ocean
The castle walls are burning down
We've got to find our way out
it's sink or swim, we're at the end
the captain's going to sink the ship
give me one last chance to make it through
it's sink or swim, we're at the end
I can see for miles over the ocean
The castle walls are burning down
We've got to find our way out
So shed some blood and sink some ships
take all their gold, let us fight with them
we'll walk the plank, it seems like miles
Hear the cannons blow
it's sink or swim, we're at the end
I can see for miles over the ocean
The castle walls are burning down
We've got to find our way out
i've got to find a way I've got to find a way
it's sink or swim, we're at the end
I can see for miles over the ocean
The castle walls are burning down
We've got to find our way out
it's sink or swim, we're at the end
the captain's going to sink the ship

haha pirates
maybe it's just because the vocals are so similar, but everytime i hear the chorus of this song, i get this image in my head of flying over the ocean, which reminds me of the line in Escape the Fate's "There's No Sympathy for the Dead" where they say, "A hundred thousand wings soaring through the sky at insane speeds we can't catch with our eyes." I'm not sure if there actually IS a connection between these guys and ETF, but I've heard over and over again (and experienced this myself as well) that this band is so much like Escape the Fate. I think this song has to do with those times in your life when you know you need to change: "The castle walls are burning down. We gotta find our way out." "I can see for miles over the ocean." - He can see what will happen if he doesn't change. "So fire at will. Give me one last chance to make it through." - He wants to show someone, maybe an ex or even just friends or family, that he can and will change. That's my take. Regardless of the meaning, this song is very deep, and I absolutely adore it.
