Nine Days - Down With The Ship lyrics

Well it's been past four years since we went down in flames In the mouth of the lion's den While we held our heads We held our breath And one by one we lost our only friends We traveled in fast company and kept up with the pace But that's no guarantee that we could ever win this race We don't ask for much Just a little to get by Enough to keep us grounded while the rest are getting high And while we play hard, while we keep it real Search for water in this desert, we don't have to steal We'll go down with the ship The captain's of our destiny We'll get on our way With the wind against our backs We'll go down with the ship Before we hand it over Said over and over Again We don't have much longer before we say goodbye They'll be time enough tomorrow to look me in the eye While we play hard, while we keep it real Search for water in this desert we don't have to steal Those days are long gone over And just a word to the wise Cuz if I never reach the end I sure have enjoyed the ride We travel in fast company to keep up with this pace There's one thing that I guarantee is that we'll win this race We'll go down with the ship The captain's of our destiny We'll get on our way With the wind against our backs We'll go down with the ship Before we hand it over Said over and over and over and over We'll go down with the ship The captain's of our destiny We'll get on our way With the wind against our backs We'll go down with the ship Before we hand it over I said over and over Again Again Down with the ship
