Days run, night’s come, so soon
The darkness is chilling
there’s no company in song
When the sea witch first sang
I should have gone
But caught in her siren
I took my ship in the night
Now left here to rage against the dying light
A frightening mistake,
to sail bravely as I did
But if I get lost,
at least I’ll have lived
The waves were gentle
in the Early Days
I’ll send myself there
when the tide breaks
I’d rather be
lost at sea
than safely home in misery
I’m not drowning
I’m not drowning now
I’m not drowning
I’m not drowning
There is so little
that I control,
But I’ll stay afloat
and that I know,
I won’t let the sea swallow me whole
Let it capture me
I will stay afloat
