Lifeboats Lyrics

Struggling to stay afloat as the cold engulfs me
Losing all will to fight
Staring into the eyes of the drowned
Reunited with morbid foresight
Your outstretched hand is better reclined
For all that I touch seems to die in good time

What chance is left when the life jacket fails?
Where do we shelter with a sunken ship?
It's why I came aboard and what I'm dying for
Land is so far away
Already life seems so long ago

I'm not sure how much water I can tread
I can ascend broken pieces but they sink under my weight

Your outstretched hand is better alone,
For all that I touch turns to stone
Why am I here?
What is left to do?
No army of lifeboats can help me pull through
