The Material - Before This Ship Goes Down [Lyrics]

NOTE; I do not own this. All rights go to The Material.

LYRICS;
"Don't kid yourself," you said to me
"We'll pack our bags but never leave this room.
We'll never leave this room."
What happened to our plans, our dreams?
We buried them on this small street too soon, too soon.

I know you're scared, but so am I.
If we never leave, then we'll never try.

You and I want to know what we were
Hand in hand, as unbreakable as stone
You and I, we won't get rolled under
When the waves crash down, we'll stay afloat
You and I want to know we'll make it
Selling out in this godforsaken town
Before this ship goes down.

Let's take a change and leave tonight
Believe me dear, we'll be alright.
It's true, we'll be alright, it's true
We'll turn the key and take the wheel
No looking back, this time it's real
With you, yeah, with you.

I know you're scared, but so am I.
If we never leave, then we'll never try.

You and I want to know what we were
Hand in hand, as unbreakable as stone
You and I, we won't get rolled under
When the waves crash down, we'll stay afloat
You and I want to know we'll make it
Selling out in this godforsaken town
Before this ship goes down.

We won't go down
This time it's now or never
Forget the map, we've got each other
We won't go down
This time it's now or never
We'll leave this place forever

I know you're scared, but so am I.

You and I want to know what we were
Hand in hand, as unbreakable as stone
You and I, we won't get rolled under
When the waves crash down, we'll stay afloat
You and I want to know we'll make it
Selling out this godforsaken town
Before this ship goes down.

You and I want to know what we were
Hand in hand, as unbreakable as stone
You and I, we won't get rolled under
When the waves crash down, we'll stay afloat
You and I want to know we'll make it
Selling out in this godforsaken town
Before this ship goes down.

Sounds like an awesome Marriage song. The lyrics are just about like it's about a marriage. How it won't be easy. This song says that if the 2 married keep going and stay strong what can stop 'em. that's what I get from it. There's so much divorce now-a-days that people need to realize that just because you marry doesn't mean things get easier. They get harder in fact, but as one, married couples should help eachother to strengthen their relationship. not destroy it.

Hey The Material fans!

Check out my channel, we're a band with a chick singer with a pretty similar sound. We've also been told we sound like paramore and bands like flyleaf. WE just released a new EP on itunes and the songs are on our channel. Check us out if you're into finding new music. :D
