Anchor Lyrics by Decks

Dearly Departing

2022

I can't really see it here and now
And the lights behind my back are turning down
Every sailor knows his in and outs
But I struggle every now and then with life so hear me out

I might die today
I could throw my life away
Every time I surface I can't see
I think my mind’s away
They say I'm bad luck
That's why the bad stuck
And follows me everywhere

Seeing ain't always believing
The ocean was never forgiving
We need to drop anchor

And I stand and wait as cold air breaks the sail before us all
Our fatal fate has taken everything that we once loved
So f*ck it all
If I go down I’ll be swinging
A rope tied to songs I’ve been singing
The weight is enough for a fixing
So I tighten the knot and I'm ready for war
War
I still need more (From life, inside my mind)
More

I can't really see it here and now
So I contemplate the ways in which I drown
Every time I’m lost I'm never found
I just suffer all the consequences, end up on the ground

I might die today
I could throw my life away
Every time I surface I can't see
I think my mind’s away
They say I'm bad luck
That's why the bad stuck
And follows me everywhere

Seeing ain't always believing
The ocean was never forgiving
We need to drop anchor

I'm leading a life not worth living
And seemingly so, unforgiving
It's time I let out this anger
