Let me off of this boat
 I'm sick of this ride
 The world is heading ever southward
 And I can't stay in here
 
 And you're lying awake
 Away on your side
 The feeling comes in waves and burns us
 And I don't wanna die
 
 From the slippery hands
 To the line of your throat
 The fever now consumes us both
 In a fire now we will go
 
 Santa Maria
 Why did you have to go?
 Santa Maria
 One day we will know
 
 In a bowing of heads and a passing of hands
 And all we thought they'd understand
 Is lost and they won't know
 And what have we left
 It's all that we've got 
 There is no " X " to mark our spot
 What's past is done and gone
 
 Santa Maria
 Why did you have to burn?
 Santa Maria
 One day you will learn
