I board the ship
for you I'd be
anything
do anything
be anyone
fall over love
I call you late
the palms wave free
I call you twice
the ocean freezes
call again
please answer me
I cannot see
the signs in heaven
The cigarette butt
blotted out
your name in my
sweet bank account
the time has changed
the tides have turned
the twine encircled
Turn around
I grab your coat
and pull you tight
try to reach you
long distance calls
make me miss you
the more I need
you're far away
the more I talk
you pull away
My reciever dropp'd
the mirror crack'd
and side to side
I stumble, cry
and cry until the waves roll in
shrug and shake
tomorrows bleak
tomorrow takes
tomorrow grins
Red stains on my tank
not sure how they got there
pools of dripping wine
tears of blackened lines
My reciever dropp'd
the mirror crack'd
and side to side
I stumble, cry
and cry until the waves roll in
shrug and shake
tomorrows bleak
tomorrow takes
tomorrow grins
You pull away
my reciever dropp'd
static on the other side
street lights dimmed
blinds drawn hard
fallen angels cry
