This Ship Is Going Down

This Ship Is Going Down - Attalus

This sleeping city's going down tonight

The tempest will swallow us before we open up our eyes

But we tell ourselves that we'll be safe inside

Oh no don't tell me you believed the lies

And we would see it if we'd just wake up

Justice will come

We must wake up

Take my hand and wave them goodbye

But don't look back

Don't look back

Because you might catch fire

Take my word

Don't swallow their lies

The door is the door is open

The door is the door is open

It's a dog eat dog world or so they say

So we flash our teeth at those we meet because

If we're not the hunter we will be the prey

If it's survival of the fittest

I guess the only winner is the one who beats the grave

But we're all helpless in the waves

And we would see it if we'd just wake up

We must wake up

Take my hand and wave them goodbye

But don't look back

Don't look back

Because you might catch fire

Take my word

Don't swallow their lies

The door is the door is open

The door is the door is open

The door is the door is open tonight

This ship is going down but

You don't have to sink with the rest of them

Don't leave it up to fate

Tomorrow is too late

So come while there's still a choice to make

This ship is sinking

O man tell me what are you thinking

We can't escape the waves

These walls will be our grave

The tide is coming

O man what wrecks are we becoming

Dive in the sea of grace

Before it changes face

The sky is turning black a sign that justice is at hand

Will you embrace the sea

Or will you face it like a man

This ship is going down

The time will come to pay your debt

The sea will be your judge but will it be your advocate

Lift your eyes

Wake o sleeper come to life

Don't close your eyes

Wake o sleeper come to life
