Shipwrecked Lyrics

Your silent stare
Has got me feeling like a ghost.
An apparition
Of a life we used to know.

A part of you will live on as a martyr.
Lying drunk, beneath the stars, choking in the water.
You left me to drown in my own mistakes.
And all I want is a love that never dies.

As the waves crash over my face
I knew I'd die a cynic
Longing for your embrace
Yourself for the worst
Set the compass for the sun
We're blown by the wind
But we're drawn to the storm.

A part of me will live on as a martyr.
Lying drunk, beneath the stars, choking in the water.
You left me to drown in my own mistakes.
And all I want is a love that never dies.
All I want is a love that never dies.

I'm sinking fast and holding on
I guess you couldn't stay for long
A burst of blood in my chest
I'd risk my life to touch the stars
But traveling through space and time
Is not the most luxurious climb
I gave it everything I got
We'll break it off forevermore
Again...
Again...

And I for one will not be sold on lies and deceit
And tales of shipwrecked lovers lost in the sea
And rest assure we'll be ashore in a moments glance
The search party has left its mark we might have a chance

We have high hopes...
