- The Great Shipwreck Of Life LyricsWe can make you understand
We can make you understand
Play with me
You can make the love and I'll make the money
Stay with me
Shut out the world, live underneath the city
Release cold gender bombs
On colonial closets, Middle England
Stay with me
I'll be Peter Pan and you just be pretty
To the great and the petrified
We all fall down
To the slaves and the civilized
We all fall down
To the lovers we left behind
The bad days, the good nights
In the great shipwreck of life
We all fall down
Born we are between the hard black rock
And the cold of the immortal
Torn from 'cause from the flames of the brave
And the bossom we can't return to
We light up the bars of the world
With the decadent distance of innocence, oh
Free but sharp, we could be the centerline
Guiding through the dark, oh
To the great and the petrified
We all fall down
To the slaves and the civilized
We all fall down
To the lovers we left behind
The bad days, the good nights
In the great shipwreck of life
We all fall down
We can make you understand
We can make you understand
We can make you understand
We can make you understand
To the great and the petrified
We all fall down
To the slaves and the civilized
We all fall down
To the lovers we left behind
The bad days, the good nights
In the great shipwreck of life
We all fall down
We can make you understand
We can make you understand
We can make you understand
Play with me
You can make the love and I'll make the money
Stay with me
Shut out the world, live underneath the city
Release cold gender bombs
On colonial closets, Middle England
Stay with me
I'll be Peter Pan and you just be pretty
To the great and the petrified
We all fall down
To the slaves and the civilized
We all fall down
To the lovers we left behind
The bad days, the good nights
In the great shipwreck of life
We all fall down
Born we are between the hard black rock
And the cold of the immortal
Torn from 'cause from the flames of the brave
And the bossom we can't return to
We light up the bars of the world
With the decadent distance of innocence, oh
Guiding through the dark, oh
To the great and the petrified
We all fall down
To the slaves and the civilized
We all fall down
To the lovers we left behind
The bad days, the good nights
In the great shipwreck of life
We all fall down
We can make you understand
We can make you understand
We can make you understand
We can make you understand
To the great and the petrified
We all fall down
To the slaves and the civilized
We all fall down
To the lovers we left behind
The bad days, the good nights
In the great shipwreck of life
We all fall down
We can make you understand
We can make you understand
