I guess I’ll never learn my lesson Got scars to prove it, I’ve been forsaken Can’t blame it on my adolescence I do as I please, and I don’t need another reason Seeing through bloodshot eyes, I'm wondering through the night God gave up on me and hell won’t take me I guess I'm just like you, a bomb with a short fuse I can blow at any moment 'Cause I'm falling overboard, wash away my pride with the rising tide If I die before I wake, then you don’t get to pray for me Flip through the pages of my life, I can tell you how it ends But I have found my piece of mind, at the bottom of this ship Mama don’t you cry for me, it’s not your fault that I'm lost at sea I’ve made my choices, I’ve done my deeds When it rains, you’ll hear me sing I'm falling overboard, wash away my pride with the rising tide If I die before I wake, then you don’t get to pray This is not goodbye, please just close your eyes Remember all the times we wasted, this life I live I wouldn’t trade it Please just don’t let go, I'm on my way back home 'Cause I'm falling overboard, wash away my pride with the rising tide If I die before I wake, then you don’t get to pray for me
