You’re smiling but I sense fear when you say, abandon ship and there’s land near
And the water is deep around my knees, but still I don’t believe.
At another time I would have followed you anywhere, but not now
You said I was a shackle to you, well you always say the most violent things, my dear.
You’re smiling as you climb into another idea of what it means to be you
And I’m supposed to follow and I’m not supposed to mind that you keep leaving me behind.
You said that I was a shackle to you well you always say the vilest things, my dear.
