- The Sinking Ship LyricsThese sinking ships you're walking on
Did come along the silky shores
So settle down and keep hammering on
These sinking ships you're walking on
Did come along the silky shores
So settle down and keep hammering on
Roots don't apply
Where oars swing the tide
Is this the place where we belong?
The mystic place where we belong?
[Chorus]
And it weighs ten ton and a stone
Take the place on the rudder
When will we decide that we shouldn't have done it?
And it weighs ten ton and a stone
Take the place on the rudder
When will we decide that we shouldn't have done it?
Now where did we burn the top of the stern
And how did we take the wrong turn
Long is our wail, the carronades are useless back away
Break these ballasts and shape the waves
Woe to the shapes that hold us
Wolves aim to take the wood on the bow
Give them no leverage
[Chorus]
And it weighs ten ton and a stone
Take the place on the rudder
When will we decide that we shouldn't have done it?
And it weighs ten ton and a stone
Take the place on the rudder
When will we decide that we shouldn't have done it?
Youth, know your stride
I know your heart, I know your strife
You! Come play with me
And I will throw all your hopes into the sea!!
Place we've been count for nothing now
It's inescapable with me!
'cause we're stealing the white coasts of summer!
These sinking ships you're walking on
Did come along the silky shores
So settle down and keep hammering on
[Chorus]
And it takes ten ton in a stone
Take the place on the rudder
When will we decide that we shouldn't have done it?
And it takes ten ton in a stone
Take the place on the rudder
When will we decide that we shouldn't have done it?
On this endless road
We've quenched all the flames
And we're still afloat
We kept all the souls
We carried to sea alive
But the wolves on the bow
Are tearing up all we've hammered somehow
Give them no leverage, give them no leverage
Give them no leverage!
Did come along the silky shores
So settle down and keep hammering on
These sinking ships you're walking on
Did come along the silky shores
So settle down and keep hammering on
Roots don't apply
Where oars swing the tide
Is this the place where we belong?
The mystic place where we belong?
[Chorus]
And it weighs ten ton and a stone
Take the place on the rudder
When will we decide that we shouldn't have done it?
And it weighs ten ton and a stone
Take the place on the rudder
When will we decide that we shouldn't have done it?
Now where did we burn the top of the stern
And how did we take the wrong turn
Long is our wail, the carronades are useless back away
Break these ballasts and shape the waves
Woe to the shapes that hold us
Wolves aim to take the wood on the bow
Give them no leverage
[Chorus]
And it weighs ten ton and a stone
Take the place on the rudder
When will we decide that we shouldn't have done it?
And it weighs ten ton and a stone
When will we decide that we shouldn't have done it?
Youth, know your stride
I know your heart, I know your strife
You! Come play with me
And I will throw all your hopes into the sea!!
Place we've been count for nothing now
It's inescapable with me!
'cause we're stealing the white coasts of summer!
These sinking ships you're walking on
Did come along the silky shores
So settle down and keep hammering on
[Chorus]
And it takes ten ton in a stone
Take the place on the rudder
When will we decide that we shouldn't have done it?
And it takes ten ton in a stone
Take the place on the rudder
When will we decide that we shouldn't have done it?
On this endless road
We've quenched all the flames
And we're still afloat
We kept all the souls
We carried to sea alive
But the wolves on the bow
Are tearing up all we've hammered somehow
Give them no leverage, give them no leverage
Give them no leverage!
