Ships Lyrics

Cover art for Ships lyrics by Umbrellas

I agree with you LitaK. I think this song is about passing along into the afterlife. This song is definitely full of metaphors, like our bodies being ships and docking at the same port.
Now, let me know what you think, but I've really been thinking a lot about these lines "I love the sound of my feet against these empty streets I saw the whole town burn down I'm walking away" To me, I feel like this is saying that walking through this life feels really empty and useless and we're constantly walking away from it. Any thoughts?
