I don't need to write it down, |
|
I've known these lines by heart for years. |
|
But everytime I try they seem to lack a certain elegance. |
|
Anyway I wanted you to know that I'll be staying in this year. |
|
Cause I believe you're better off without me here. |
|
I'm sinking |
|
You're fading |
|
This ship has been lost at sea. |
|
I'm drowning |
|
You're leaving |
|
That's how it is |
|
Treading water's never been a thing for me. |
|
So long it's been a very good year |
|
And I know it takes a lifetime to repay |
|
All I ever wanted was to sail away |
|
But I got caught up in the waves along the way |
|
Thought I found myself |
|
Had a bucketful and threw it all away |
|
So long, it's all gone now. |
|
This year, yeah, I spent it all. |
|
I only did it to prove I could. |
