Abney Park Cut Anchor Lyrics

Either you're an anchor, or you're a sail
I've got places to go, and you leave me too frail
Can't keep my head above water, you're pulling me down
I can't keep my mood where I wanna, when you're wearing that frown

I want to sail!
I want to sail!
I want to sail!
I want to sail!

You tell me that you're lonely, and I say come aboard
I say "Hey take my hand," but you hand me your sword
I can tell that you're hurting, I wish I could help you some way
But each time I reach out, you push all my friendship away
I want to sail!
I want to sail!
I want to sail!
I want to sail! I can't be held responsible if you won't let me in
I can't tell you what's wrong when you wear such thin skin
I don't know what will happen if we keep going this way
I don't know what will be left at the end of the day

I want to sail!
I want to sail!
I want to sail!
I want to sail!

Do I owe you a warning when I feel you lash out?
I must protect my own, I don't wanna hear you shout
I fear I'll destroy you if I play you this tune
I know you'll destroy me if I don't free myself soon

I want to sail!
I want to sail!
I want to sail!
I want to sail!
