Let's Go Down

here we lay

it's strange to think there's nothing left to say

but that's all right with me

what're words anyway

as light fades

my mind escapes to wonder when your bed became the ocean

that we're both bound to drown in

and that's where we begin

i can't keep myself from looking back

to think of all the other fools who broke their backs

sailing upon ships that were designed to crack

sailing over waters where the storms don't ever pass

but still we sail

avoiding all the thoughts that we might fail

they are of no consequence

when you lay your head across my chest

oh how quickly i forget

what a mess we have become

and you weren't meant to be with me

we were never meant to be

still i never had the strength

to turn myself around

and so for now

let's go down

here we'll stay

there's nothing left to play

unless we turn around and go from where we came

it's too late

pretending this was no matter of fate

and even if we tried

i fear it'd stay the same

some things never change

i can't keep myself from looking back

to think of all the other fools who missed the facts

sailing over waves that were designed to crash

sailing over waters where the storms don't ever pass

but still we sail

avoiding all the thoughts that we might fail

they are of no consequence

when you lay your head across my chest

oh how quickly i forget

what a mess we have become

and you weren't meant to be with me

we were never meant to be

still i never had the strength

to turn myself around

and so for now

let's go down
