Lead Sails (And a Paper Anchor)

Marching along

Like a good soldier does

I'm setting sail

With anchors holding me down

Pack up my bags

Stow them away (Stow them away)

I'm bidding farewell

To all that is safe

Will I come up for air?

Come up for air

After a while, the current is calling me

Lulling me, waving goodbye

I'm out here alone—oh, God, can you save me now?

Sinking, my heart turns to stone

Withering away

A shrinking violet dies

So full of life

These lights have dried me out

Into the sea

Needed a drink

I never thought

This would consume me whole

Will I come up for air?

Come up for air

After a while, the current is calling me

Lulling me, waving goodbye (Goodbye)

I'm out here alone—oh, God, can you save me now? (Save me now)

Sinking, my heart turns to stone (Turns to stone)

Sinking, my heart turns to stone (Turns to stone)

Sinking, my heart turns to stone

Save me, take me home

(Over and over again)

Save me, take me home

(Wishing that this all would end)

Save me, take me home

(Over and over again)

Save me, take me home

(Wishing that this all would end)

After a while, the current is calling me

Lulling me, waving goodbye (Goodbye)

I'm out here alone—oh, God, can you save me now? (Save me now)

Sinking, my heart turns to stone

After a while the current is calling me

Lulling me, waving goodbye (Goodbye)

I'm out here alone—oh, God, can you save me now?

Sinking, my heart turns to stone (Turns to stone)

Sinking, my heart turns to stone

Save me, take me home

(Will I come up for air?

Will I come up for air?)

Save me, take me home

(Will I come up for air?

Will I come up for air?)

Save me, take me home

(Over and over again)

Save me, take me home

(Wishing that this

Wishing that all this will end)
