Slowly sinking ship, who's your enemy?
Something's got you doing down
Slowly sinking ship, you've fought hard at sea
Tell me, where's your battleground?

Down there in your hull, your thoughts are plentiful
And your dreams are satisfied
Up there on your mast, your flag is waving fast
And it shows your captain's pride

Slowly sinking ship, what are you crying for
The sea is full of wasted fears
Slowly sinking ship, please don't cry no more
Your heart has weakened with the years

Down there in your hull, your thoughts are plentiful
And your dreams are satisfied
Up there on your mast, your flag is waving fast
And it shows your captain's pride
