If I was a sailor I would sail the sea Surrounded by the water Lost out in the breeze I would sail towards nothing Just sky to gaze upon With stars up there to lead me towards This journey I'll be on Sail me Far away from here Towards emptiness Or 'til I disappear Sail me Wherever silence lives Where I can go so no one finds me Leaving my whole life behind me And sail I'm scared that I'm becoming Someone I fear I'd be Someone who has no future Or the guts to sail the seas Which may be why I'm drinking 'Til the whiskey burns my veins It numbs me 'til I'm sober And then it crucifies the pain So sail me Far away from here Towards emptiness Or 'til I disappear Oh Sail me Wherever silence lives Where I can go so no one finds me Leaving my whole life behind me Sail I'll take a step, then take another And see how far I get Just get me there, I'll sail tomorrow Don't give up on me just yet Let me sail So I'm sailing So far away from here Towards emptiness And 'til I disappear Oh I'm sailing 'Til I find where silence lives Sailing where no one can find me Leaving my whole life behind me Sail If I was a sailor I would sail the sea
