Atmosphere - Wooden Ships lyrics

[Verse 1: Slug] The shock value shook me off Adrenaline like a rookie cop Can I turn the siren on, please Never before have I been so secure with my reactionary inability And she's k**in' me again It's the same old tale I've been murdered a million times Some how I keep coming back to life Same mountain, I continue to climb And I'm not as confused as I am considerate Back and forth between my cigarette and her cli*oris I'm workin' on both like it's nobody's business Such an odd way to gain god's forgiveness And all of my friends believe I should forgive myself They insist that I've done nothing wrong But I'm not convinced 'till I finish every bottle on the shelf And I've run out of reasons to write my songs And all of her friends think I'm holdin' her back It's beautiful, but they don't know the half They're barely aware of a fraction Blinded by dramatics Ignoring all the pa**ion [Hook x4] Wooden ships, on the water Rescue me [Verse 2: Slug] The clash of the titans To balance the excitement Challenge the enlightenment And flash my vice grips Maintenance man, keepin' faith in my plan If it's possible, I'll fix it And if not, then I'll kick it There was a time I would follow wind into a storm And all I wanted was for someone to keep me warm But now I'm torn by my tolerance I fight with my head I don't need to pollinate a flower that's dead And everyone I've built up, I watched wilt And everyone that has built me is k**in' me And as much as I love her Neither one of us should suffer So I'm a glue both the wings back on and watch her flutter Go fly bu*terfly Don't cry shut your eyes Gonna watch each other die Before we give it another try Hover little hummingbird Dart through the sky I've been under the thumb It's no wonder I'm still shy Hunger, onward, with my desires Learned the hard way not to play with fire From a comfortable distance, I'll admire Because I got to take a break I'm exhausted, I'm tired Hunger, onward, with my desires Learned the hard way not to play with fire From a comfortable distance, I'll admire Because I got to take a break I'm exhausted, I'm tired [Hook x4]
