about

Sailor Down – A dystopian moody intro abruptly shifts into a chugging he said/she said hookfest with dueling unreliable narrators about the best worst love affair ever.

lyrics

all the thumbs couldn’t hold the sailor down
cape disappointment is a lovely place to drown
if you’re happy and you know it
go to bed and let me be
or are you big enough to forgive the way you fell in me?

you were building up when I was breaking down
you were sketching out and I was skipping town
spinning out in five dimensions
sleepy mumbling through the night
to stop the wondering if something’s going to save me now

all right, all wrong wrong wrong
so right so long long long long
all right, all wrong wrong wrong

I never have known this
there’s nowhere to run
this is the only one
this is the thing
that everyone is going on about
you’ll never be, I can’t even see
when you said you’d wait did you know I’m always late?
like a tied-up timpanist in the song that’s dragging me

all right, all wrong wrong wrong
so right so long long long long
all right, all wrong wrong wrong
in the streetlight we answered every question right
all the thumbs couldn't hold the sailor down
