Fretblanket - Abandon Ship Lyrics

Send "Abandon Ship" ringtone to your cell

I was there on the morning of the birth

Waiting to catch the first breath

And i have seen more than i would have chosen

I was present at the first sign of the death.

Some would say you should have seen it coming

The poison seas were tearing at the shore

And our island home was invaded not our own

And we dug our trenches deeper even more

Could i leave you when i asked you

Would you be dismayed?

Scrape you from my skin pick another victim

Could you take that straight?

No-one talked about the times that we had missed

And the chances we'd ignored because who cares?

We were young it didn't matter and we knew that on our side

We had time we had everything to spare.

I would while away the seconds and the days

Waiting for the phone to bring some news

Read the papers try to find my name in print

Anything to keep myself amused.

Could i leave you when i asked you

Would you be dismayed?

Scrape you from my skin pick another victim

Could you take that straight?

Maybe i could find some daylight

Maybe i could use you as a friend

Maybe i could find some comfort

A phrase that i could follow to the end

Could i leave you when i asked you

Would you be dismayed?

Scrape you from my skin pick another victim

Could you take that straight?
