Shipwrecked (Glass Bottom Boat)

歌詞

As we pulled out the stakes And put your knee to the wall You were happy and ready for life Thought I was tracking your heartbeat But you were leading me by mine That's the ignorance of my youth And I've but little in life And less that I'm willing to part with I've been spoiled and I've sweated and starved I was drawn to this place Leaving love in my wake Though it's me who will be left behind And I was holding my breath, dear To stave off collapse My eyes felt like glass bottom boats that had cracked You lay here and cry without fear of the truth I was cursing the flaws of my ignorance and youth As we pulled out the stakes And put your knee to the wall You were happy and ready for life Thought I was tracking your heartbeat But you were leading me by mine That's the ignorance of my youth And I was holding my breath, dear To stave off collapse My eyes felt like glass bottom boats that had cracked You lay here and cry without fear of the truth I was cursing the flaws of my ignorance and youth
