Lyrics
If I was a sailor
I would sail the sea
Surrounded by the water
Lost out in the breeze
I would sail towards nothing
Just sky to gaze upon
The stars up there to lead me towards
This journey I'll be on
Sail me
Far away from here
Towards emptiness
Or till I disappear
Sail me
Wherever silence lives
Where I can go so no one finds me
Leaving my whole life behind me
And sail
I'm scared that I'm becoming
Someone I feared I'd be
Someone who has no future
Or the guts to sail the seas
Which may be I'm drinking
Till the whiskey burns my veins
It numbs me till I'm sober
Then it crucifies the pain
So sail me
Far away from here
Towards emptiness
Or till I disappear
Oh sail me
Wherever silence lives
Where I can go so no one finds me
Leaving my whole life behind me
Sail
I'll take a step then take another
And see how far I get
Just get me there I'll sail tomorrow
Don't give up on me just yet
Let me sail
So I'm sailing
So far away from here
Towards emptiness
Until I disappear
Oh I'm sailing
Till I find where silence lives
Sailing where no one can find me
Leaving my whole life behind me
Sail
If I was a sailor
I'd sail the sea
