Ourfathers. - III lyrics

[Verse 1] Our bodies sway under gallows Drunkships and lanterns sinking Our hearts used to beat for forever With the pressing of our lips we save face With dull quills we carve paths Rivers of ink leading us away Like lovers we embrace The tide is begging us to stay [Hook] If this is how it ends Let me drown in the endless sea If this is how I die Tell my son he never knew me [Verse 2] Following the rhymes of broken lines Of love loss and things I'm thinking I've been writing letters to myself Dear god horizons shrinking Encrypted man*scripts of love We should have shared One day you took to sea And the letters you wrote They never reached me [Hook] If this is how it ends Let me drown in the endless sea If this is how I die Tell my son he never knew me [Chorus] Cause when we danced, we danced alone Our bodies strain, we took to song The flagships falling, it won't be long When you take to sea, sing this song [Verse 3] Cause when we danced, we danced alone Our bodies sway, under the sinking sun The flagships falling, it won't be long When you take to sea, I hope you hear my song Cause when we danced like lovers, we danced alone Singing to the stars a sea of endless drones We're all alone, we are all alone We're alone, we are all alone [Chorus] Cause when we danced, we danced alone Our bodies strain, we took to song The flagships falling, it won't be long When you take to sea, sing this song [Chorus + Hook] Cause when we danced, we danced alone (If this is how it ends, let me drown in the endless sea) Our bodies strain, we took to song (If this is how I die, tell my son he never knew me) The flag ships falling, it won't be long (If this is how it ends, let me drown in the endless sea) When you take to sea, sing this song (If this is how I die, tell my son he never knew me)
