The ship was sinking, we were drinking, singing one last song
Casting our gold into the ocean
You grabbed a bucket, started screaming come on, come on
Let's try and slow the downward motion
Back in the kingdom we were kings and queens and oh so strong
That God himself could not contain us
We never thought we'd be the shorter end of sword and gun
Now God himself can never save us
Waves of silver, waves of gold are coming down to take me
Separate my body from my soul and Jesus either leaves or takes me
Hopes of heaven, fears of hell and what's the chance I'll make it
When all my other plans have failed and I have tried so hard to fake it
All right...
We started sinking, drinking water from the open sea
Losing our bodies to the ocean
You grabbed my hand and started screaming, rescue me
Together fight the downward motion
Back in the kingdom we were kings and queens and oh so free
That God himself just had to show us
We never thought we'd be the colder side of land and sea
But he's the only one who knows us
Waves of silver, waves of gold are coming down to take me
Separate my body from my soul, and Jesus either leaves or takes me
Hopes of heaven, fears of hell and what's the chance I'll make it
When all my other plans have failed and I have tried so hard to fake it
