Description
Sinking
Lyrics/music by Rick Westall

[V1]
Turn my eyes from the pain
And my face to the rain
Don’t think I can fight
This battle over again

And now you’re drowning my crew
For not following you
There’s not a single damn thing
That I can do

All of my best laid plans
Just dismissed out of hand
And though you’re burning the deck
Here I make my last stand

[Chorus]
And though the dream is sinking
I know, I’ve played my part
And I’ll hoist the final mainsail
As the cannons blaze my heart.

[V2]
The fleet is lost to the sea
But at least they are free
Not living a lie
Like you’d like them to be

Now I’ve sealed my own fate
And my Command’s in a state
Your love was the trap
And that means you were the bait

And while I’m heading for shore
You’re boarding-up all the doors
Keeping me locked up
For ever and more
