The Ship Songtext
von Ben Weasel

My ship′s coming in
And I'm watching it from within
My brain says move ahead
Even though the waves are crashing
In my head
My head and body
Reeling, gaining on
My heart and mind
Are screaming for a break, a break

The undertow
Is dragging me away
My brain has watered on
My brain, I′m fading fast


My ship's lurching in
And I've lost most of the crew
The sky′s folding in
And the water′s freezing

My ship's coming in
Attacked so awkwardly
New arms and legs
I crash and I stand
And float on frigid waters
Towards the land at last

Oasis tears fall, I hold out my hands
Helpless tears fall, I hold out my hands

I hold out
I hold out
My hands are holding
I hold out
I hold out
My hands are holding
My hands are holding
My hands are holding out
