We Sinking

 
We sinking  
Baby do you see us sinking  
We drowning  
Baby I don't know how to swim  
 
The ship is sinking, the captain knows  
Passengers are clueless, but everybody shows  
I guess we’re all drowning, suppose we all know  
The weight of the water pulling us below  
 
Did you see the signals?  
Did they sound the horn?  
Did you see us sinking?  
The label held the warning  
 
The waves were crashing, no lifeboats in sight  
The stars were hiding, no guiding light  
We held on tighter to the lies we were told  
The truth was sinking, but the water was cold  
 
Did you see the signals?  
Did they sound the horn?  
Did you see us sinking?  
The label held the warning  
 
The waves were crashing, no lifeboats in sight  
The stars were hiding, no guiding light  
We held on tighter to the lies we were told  
The truth was sinking, but the water was cold  
 
Did you see the signals?  
Did they sound the horn?  
Did you see us sinking?  
The label held the warning  
 
The captain's silence spoke too loud  
A heavy heart, a sinking shroud  
Did you feel the weight of it all?  
The fall was ours to call  
 
The ship is gone, the sea is calm  
But the echoes linger on and on  
Did you get a lifeline?  
Or did you let it go?  
Guess we’re all just drowning  
In what we’ll never know
