Seems I'm exposed Split in two a fault line cut right through me Between my heart and my feet There's an apathy that I can't find my way around But I can feel I'm getting nearer I know that soon I'll be delivered
I'm overboard And I can't swim God only knows Why I let you in You and me And the siren songs you sing I'm coming home
Man I'm deep I'm drifting lost within myself Cos I'm in league I'm in a tryst with the daughter of the sea And she will have her way with me
I'm overboard And I can't swim God only knows why I let you in You and me And the siren songs you sing You've taken hold over me
The anchor in my chest Begs me to stop Rest my limbs and go to sleep And as the waves crash down My ears ring with the sound The promise of the deep
So say what you mean Or don't say anything Cos all I really want Is a place to close my eyes
I'm overboard And I can't swim God only knows Why I let you in You and me And the siren songs you sing So let the waves rush over me
