The End Of You Lyrics - Hot Rock - Sleater Kinney

Build for me your tightest ship 

Make the oars run swift and fast 

Send me out your strongest crew 

Make their hearts and minds steadfast 

Bless me with Athena 

There's no meaner, she's the best 

For when we hit the roughest seas 

We'll need all we can get 

You say, "sink or swim" 

What a cruel, cruel phrase 

I'd rather fly 

Don't want to be caught in this endless race 

The first beast that will appear 

Will entice us with money and fame 

If you listen long enough 

You'll forget there's anything else

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Tie me to the mast 

Of this ship and of this band 

Tie me to the greater things 

The people that I love 

You can walk the plank 

Do the dead man's float 

Never let them see 

Your heart is pounding full of hope 

Let the last storm hit us 

Let it strike at the hardest part 

Turn us all to mutiny 

Turn this boat upside down 

I am not the captain 

I am just another fan 

Sailing off the edge of truth 

Into the end of you 

Photos 

Eye of the storm 

What a cruel, cruel myth 

There's no bigger spotlight 

Than shown on the ones brave enough to live 

The end of you, the end of you 

The end of truth, I've been looking for you 

The end of you, end of you 

The end of you, I've been looking for you
