Measure four

Matt Pond PA


those sailors came again tonight 
they measured everything in sight 
they took the last peace of my mind 
i'm fading back into the sea 
you won't even hear me breathe 
it takes a step and then it dies 

every time you want a story 
i come off so drunk and boring 

we've wasted the idea of the sun 
you ought to catch the light and run 
you have to blame someone 
those sailors came again tonight 
they measured everything in sight 
they took the last peace of my mind 

every time you want a story 
i come off so drunk and boring 

and a promise you to tell the truth 
i promise you to tell the truth
