Abandon Ship or Abandon All Hope Lyrics by Four Year Strong

Rise or Die Trying (10 Year Anniversary Edition)

2007

[Verse 1]
Don’t make a sound
It’s time to throw it into lockdown
Watch me knock down this mess that
I’ve got myself into for
A small commission
I’ll show you how
If you just get off the ground
You’ve got to move a little faster
Faster to make it out of this disaster
Before you get factored out
[Pre-Chorus]
Turn, turn the page
Another line I should have saved
But who’s to say
That you would’ve been blown away
'Cause you've always been blown away
[Chorus]
Anchor, come and drag me down
Before I take the dive (I’ll take what I can get)
Leave me for dead, I've always said
You’d find me in over my head
Now you can take it literal instead
So now I’m bringing it back (I’ll take what I can get)
Anchor drag me down
Before I take the dive
[Verse 2]
Call off the search
There's been no sign for and days
And there’s no way to say for sure
If less is more
I’m sweating out the fever
That’s been spreading on the dance floor
Pick your feet up on the ground
You’ve got to move a little faster
Faster to make it out of this disaster
Will you last or will you fall to your knees
[Pre-Chorus]
Turn, turn the page
Another line I should have saved
But who’s to say
That you would’ve been blown away
'Cause you've always been blown away
[Chorus]
Anchor, come and drag me down
Before I take the dive (I’ll take what I can get)
Leave me for dead, I've always said
You’d find me in over my head
Now you can take it literal instead
So now I’m bringing it back (I’ll take what I can get)
Anchor drag me down
Before I take the dive
[Bridge]
At first with all the weight of all this pressure I was fine
But now I feel like I
I buried myself alive
Drag me out or push me down
But hurry up before the
Surface freezes over now
I’m gonna drown
Goin' down
Without a sound
Anchor come and drag me down
(Anchor come and drag me down)
Anchor come and drag me down
Anchor come and drag me down
Before I take the dive
[Chorus]
Anchor, come and drag me down
Before I take the dive (I’ll take what I can get)
Leave me for dead, I've always said
You’d find me in over my head
Now you can take it literal instead
So now I’m bringing it back (I’ll take what I can get)
Anchor drag me down
Before I take the dive
[Outro]
Before I take the dive (I’ll take what I can get)
Anchor drag me down
Before I take the dive
