Lyrics

1.When I was older
2.I was a sailor on an open sea
3.But now I’m underwater
4.And my skin is paler than it should ever be
5.Hmm6.
7.I’m on my back again
8.Dreaming of a time and place
9.Where you and I remain the best of friends
10.Even after all this ends
11.Can we pretend?
12.I’m on my, I’m on my back again
13.It’s seeming more and more
14.Like all we ever do is see how far it bends
15.Before it breaks in half and then
16.We bend it back again17.
18.Guess I got caught in the middle of it
19.Yes I’ve been taught, got a little of it
20.In my blood, in my blood
21.Memories burn like a forest fire
22.Heavy rain turns any funeral pyre to mud
23.In the flood24.

25.When I was older
26.I was a sailor on an open sea
27.But now I’m underwater
28.And my skin is paler than it should ever be29.
30.I’m watching movies back to back in black and white, I never
31.Seen anybody do it like I do it any better
32.Been goin’ over you, I’m overdue for new endeavors
33.Nobody lonely like I’m lonely and I don’t know whether
34.You’d really like it in the limelight
35.You’d sympathize with all the bad guys
36.I’m still a victim in my own right
37.But I’m the villain in my own eyes, yeah38.
39.When I was older
40.I was a sailor on an open sea
