Ship Lost At Sea Lyrics - Raise The Dead - Phantom Planet

Hey, arms of the ocean reach out for you 

Rusty pipes, cant help calling for you too 

The brine is finer than wine but be careful not to drink too much 

Cause there are remains on the bottom of that cup 

If you fear youve had enough of that salty stuff 

Im on the beach reading a book 

Lost in a page, lost for an age 

I could be your bonfire and you could be my ship out at sea 

Look, Im not after your charity 

And my dear I dont want you pleased with yourself 

What is that feeling of pride when you throw your coin in a beggars cap? 

Selfless acts are quite selfish when you think about em like that 

But Ive been thinking of you and how to improve 

Cause Im in a fix, your heart is a tool 

Help someone whos close, could be me, right? Who knows? 

You could be my handout and Id be your good deed for the day 

I want a puzzle I dont have to beat 

A watch I dont have to wind 

I really want to find your missing piece 

And make it mine, all mine, all mine, oh 

So If youre hopeless and beat, lower than your feet 

Or up to your neck or down on your knees 

In way too deep and out of ideas, I can be your brainchild 

If you promise to take care of me 

Whoa, I could be your bonfire and you could be my ship out at sea 

One more time, I could be your boyfriend 

And you can pretend not to know me
