Sail On Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I took your hand and
Held it in my clutch
But it was never mine to hold
You're loving something
Of a Mida's touch
The ones you need
You turn to stone
[Chorus](2x)
Well sail on
Sail on, till you're gone
And then some
With all your broken pieces, pieces
[Verse 2]
And now you're spewing out
Those lonely lies
You say you've changed it all around
But you'll be gone again
When the winds blow
Oh sailor, another state to claim
With your flag upon the ground
[Chorus](2x)
[Bridge] [?]
How do I do to let it go
Whatever time it'll take to break you
Burden out lives
And sound of sirens
[Outro]
Sail on! (etc.)
I took your hand and
Held it in my clutch
But it was never mine to hold
You're loving something
Of a Mida's touch
The ones you need
You turn to stone
Well sail on
Sail on, till you're gone
And then some
With all your broken pieces, pieces
And now you're spewing out
Those lonely lies
You say you've changed it all around
But you'll be gone again
When the winds blow
Oh sailor, another state to claim
With your flag upon the ground
How do I do to let it go
Whatever time it'll take to break you
Burden out lives
And sound of sirens
Sail on! (etc.)

The lyrics "you're loving something of a Midas touch, the ones you need you turn to stone" kind of bug me because Midas turned things to gold, not stone; Medusa was the one that turned things to stone.
