Sleeping Ships by louderman

I’d rather get high, I’d rather let go
Loosen my shirt, untuck my soul
A walk in the park, a moment of fame
I’d rather be touched than entertained

Sleeping ships
Like silver in the dark
They carry sleeping hearts
Why don’t they come to me

I’d rather fall out, a hole in the sky
And land on the truth of a beautiful lie

Sleeping ships
Like silver in the dark
They carry sleeping hearts
Why don’t they come to me

And I see you where you want me
I see you where I’m bound
In these chains around me
These chains I won’t put down
And I see you under bridges
I see you where you’re down
In these chains around you
Afraid to touch the ground

I’d rather be drowned than stay adrift
Aboard our thoughts and sleeping ships
I’d rather we talk than take aim
I’d rather tell lies and entertain

Sleeping ships
Like silver in the dark
They carry sleeping hearts
But they won’t carry me

And I see you where you want me
I see you where I’m down
In these chains around me
Afraid to touch the ground
And I see you under bridges
I see you where you’re bound
In these chains around you
These chains you won’t put down

Sleeping ships
Like silver in the dark
They carry sleeping hearts
But they don’t carry me

Sleeping ships
Like silver in the dark
They carry sleeping hearts
Why don’t they come to me
