16 Fathoms

16 fathoms down

Where my ship is bound

Another drop in the ocean

16 fathoms down

She says, sailor man, believe me

I stand on silent ground

You say your plan is to leave me

Sail out from this town

Your prophecy runs in my family

I know where your ship is bound

One day you're going to find yourself

16 fathoms down

16 fathoms down

Where my soul is bound

Another drop in the ocean

16 fathoms down

I didn't pay no mind to her

I just turned around

My ship lies out in the harbor

I'll sail out from this town

My thoughts become uneasy

And words keep turning 'round

I pray that I won't find myself

16 fathoms down

16 fathoms down

Where my soul is bound

Another drop in the ocean

16 fathoms down

Girl, it don't matter where you're going

It don't matter where you're set

You try and get it but it not work today

It no matter what you're doing

It don't matter where you're set

Men wear the crown, you can't take anywhere

You think I was a loser, let me tell you you're wrong

I'm no fool, man, me fi done

Positivity surround me

No want no negative around me

A storm will rage inside me

As I sail out on this sound

I pray to God this darkness pass

I pray that I won't drown

Now the sails are blown to bloody rags

The miss and mast come down

A prophecy has to mend

16 fathoms down

The Coast Guard come to find me

In the place where the ship went down

A prophecy will bind me

And this way I'll be drowned

16 fathoms down

Where my ship is bound

Another drop in the ocean

16 fathoms down

Girl, it don't matter where you're going

It don't matter where you're set

You try and get it but it not work today

It no matter what you're doing

It don't matter where you're set

Men wear the crown, you can't take anywhere

You think I was a loser, let me tell you you're wrong

I'm no fool, man, me fi done

Positivity surround me

16 fathoms down
