Sinking Ships Lyrics by The JB Conspiracy

The Storm

2013

Do you remember how it all began
This fairy-tale of perfection?
We tried to build this fantasy
On picture perfect memories
But as we turned against the grain
The imperfections still remain
And so you turned on us and bit by bit
Took everything we had
'Til there was nothing left to keep us afloat
Oh what a big surprise
You never learnt to compromise
You only ever took your time
Oh what a big surprise
You never opened up your eyes
To everything you left behind
But bit by bit we'll take back all you stole
So how much time will it take
To salvage all that we lost
'Cause when you fixed your eyes like a snake
You didn't contemplate the cost
(Did you) ever make your decisions
Devoid of pride and without condition
(Did you) ever stop to think
Or did you just jump ship when we started sinking
Oh what a big surprise
You never learnt to compromise
You only ever took your time
Oh what a big surprise
You never opened up your eyes
To everything you left behind
But bit by bit we'll take back all you stole
And now you're standing here before me again
Oh what a big surprise
You never learnt to compromise
You only ever took your time
Oh what a big surprise
You never opened up your eyes
To everything you left behind
But bit by bit we'll take it back
Bit by bit we'll take back all you stole
We'll take back all you stole
We'll take back all you stole
But bit by bit we'll take it back
Bit by bit we'll take back all you stole
