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.

You're Smiling
