Dead Men Tell No Tales Lyrics

I'll be the salt that resides
From the water that drains from your eyes
The sting that burns your open woundsI'll flood the ground
I swear on your grave I'll bury this town
But not for me, no, never for me
No, not for me, no, neverWe have tested the buoyancy of loyalty
You left our lungs for canteens
You left out ankles for anchorsWe thought your arms were tied behind your back
But elastic bands tied your hands
You swim with recklessAbandon ship! Mayday! Mayday!
Swim toward shore
Our captain is overboard
He punctured holes in the floorboards
To flood the bow just in time to bow outAbandon ship!
Swim towards shore
He's over bored and overboardLeft in the wake
We man our own driftwood orphanage
A second-hand sailor's fleet to fleeLeft in the wake

We man our own driftwood orphanage
Captain is over bored and overboard
Captain kept callingAbandon ship! Mayday! Mayday!
Swim toward shore
Our captain is overboard
He punctured holes in the floorboards
To flood the bow just in time to bow outAbandon ship!
Swim towards shore
He's over bored and overboard
He's over bored and overboardAnd there's nothing you can do
When water ruins the maps we drew
Mayday! Mayday!
Save us from this drowning vesselAnd there's nothing you can do
When water ruins the maps we drew
Mayday! Mayday!
Save us from this drowning vesselI'll be the salt that resides
From the water that drains from your eyes
The sting that burns your open woundsI'll flood the ground
I swear on your grave I'll bury this town
But not for me, no, never for meWe have tested the buoyancy of loyalty
You left our lungs for canteens
You left out ankles for anchorsWe thought your arms were tied behind your back
But elastic bands tied your hands
You swim with recklessAnd there's nothing you can do
When water ruins the maps we drew
Mayday! Mayday!
Save us from this drowning vesselAnd there's nothing you can do
When water ruins the maps we drew
Mayday! Mayday!
Save us from this drowning vessel
