Give Up The Ship Lyrics - Alexa Borden

In a staggering ocean 

I find myself at peace 

And all that inner commotion 

Came rushing to a cease 

It was a terrifying dive 

Into the murky waters deep 

And though I'm floating so serenely 

All your pressure's drowning me 

Don't give up the ship 

Don't give up the ship 

Don't give up the ship 

Don't give up the ship 

Don't give up the ship 

Just give into it 

Just one rush of an upsurge 

Disoriented me 

And I know I shouldn't try to find 

A way to navigate the sea 

But every mouthful swallowed 

Fills a hollow cavity 

And though I'm lucid in your water 

All your pressure's drowning me 

Don't give up the ship 

Don't give up the ship 

Don't give up the ship 

Don't give up the ship 

Don't give up the ship 

Just give into it 

No heaven, no bliss 

Could ever amount to this 

No high, no fix 

Could ever amount to this 

I'm giving in 

I can't live like this 

Though no regrets 

I'm desperate to forget 

Desperate to forget 

Don't give up the ship 

Don't give up the ship 

Don't give up the ship 

Don't give up the ship 

Don't give up the ship 

Just give into it 

And a calm is overflowing 

And I am sinking to a grave 

No need to cry, for it was I 

Who tied this stone around my leg
