Rusting Towers

from Different Seas by Sandtimer

lyrics

How can you possibly think that I'm getting out of this?
What can you possible think am I getting out of this?
Rusting towers stand out on the waves-
I don't know if it's just this air, but I swear: it harms more than it saves.

And I feel I'm letting go of the things I used to know.

How can you possibly know if you're getting anywhere?
What can you plausibly know- is there anything out there?
I wish there was some way I could have known before
but it's just so easy to stay with the cowards that are hanging on the shore.

And I feel I'm letting go of the things I used to know.

I've been throwing stones down the well all my life,
I was waiting for the sound as they hit the sides.

Rusting towers stand out on the waves,
Rusting towers stand out on the waves..

I would face it every day if I thought that that would lead to much,
I would watch the last light fade if I thought it would stay long enough,
the sea is laughing up at me as I try and keep my eyelids shut,
the ships on the horizon line have all just started squaring up.
