The Ship

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, hanging on
My heart and mind are screaming for a break
The break
The undertow is dragging me away
My brain has water 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

Attached so awkwardly to arms and legs
I crash and stand
And float on frigid waters towards the end
At last, oasis
Tears fall, I hold out my hands
Helpless, tears fall, I hold out my hands

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh

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

I hold, I hold
My hands are holding
I hold, I hold
My hands are holding
