lyrics

Hiding behind a window
Telling your secrets through the old screen door
Spewing your marbles across the kitchen floor
And your heart keeps asking you why
Something in your heart asks why

There's something inside of me
And I can't stop the feed
I can't quit the passion I can't slow the bleed
The claws are in too deep
I said the claws are in too deep

Chorus:
Hang on to me
For I am sinking in the dead of sea
Hang on to me
For I am sinking in the dead of sea
For I am sinking in the dead of sea

I don't have much time
So I spend it with my beer to wash down my wine
Help me paint the picture - how to walk the line
I'm troubled though I smile on
I'm troubled though I smile on

<CHORUS>

How will they greet you when your ship comes in?
God greet me as a friend
How will they greet you when your ship comes in?
Lord forgive me for my sins

Say bye to mama and papa too
For tonight we fly
And we'll pray for a piece of mind
And I'll need you there right by side
I said I'll meet you there right by my side

<CHORUS>
