Ship to Wreck lyrics

Don't touch the sleeping pills, they mess with my head

Dredging the great white sharks, swimming in the bed

And here comes a killer whale, to sing me to sleep

Thrashing the covers off, has me by its teeth

And ah, my love remind me, what was it that I said?

I can't help but pull the earth around me to make my bed

And ah, my love remind me, what was it that I did?

Did I drink too much? Am I losing touch? Did I build a ship to wreck?

To wreck, to wreck

To wreck, did I build this ship to wreck?

What's with the long face? Do you want more?

Thousands of red-eyed mice, scratching at the door

Don't let the current catch you, cause she've been here before

The chair is an island, darling, you can't touch the floor

And ah, my love remind me, what was it that I said?

I can't help but pull the earth around me to make my bed

And ah, my love remind me, what was it that I did?

Did I drink too much? Am I losing touch? Did I build a ship to wreck?

To wreck, to wreck

To wreck, did I build this ship to wreck?

And good God, unstarred the skies

We are lost, and into the breach we got tossed

And the water's coming in fast

And ah, my love remind me, what was it that I said?

I can't help but pull the earth around me to make my bed

And ah, my love remind me, what was it that I did?

Did I drink too much? Am I losing touch? Did I build a ship to wreck?

To wreck, to wreck

To wreck, did I build this ship to wreck? (x2)
