I've apologized And wondered why I did that to you I've done my share of lying Then my share of crying Oh what did I do? And then by kindness and loyalty You stay with me A girl you met Over the Internet Whose been well abandoned You're amazing in that way I am but a foolish girl With too many words Not knowing how much weight Hangs on those words I admit it I admit it! Yes, Not uneducated But stupid nonetheless And you placed your trust in me And so I did trespass Now you're stuck In the invisible muck I didn't mean to create I can't go back And change what I have done So now I'm stuck too Cause I don't know Nor do you know What to do next We've already tried to drop the reins But still this remains I guess all we can try to do Is repair this 'ship But you can't trust me You can't love me And neither can I I'm desperate for a way To go back in time And erase the blip That damaged the 'ship And so the Titanic sinks slower and slower To Poseidon's lair And we can't seem to get anywhere One barely alive The other full of life, But guilt in her heart Lost, lost, lost Dark, dark, dark Just echos, echos, echos of the past That doesn't seem to ever last

Sinkin' 'Ship
I've apologized And wondered why I did that to you I've done my share of lying Then my share of crying Oh what did I do? And then by kindness and loyalty You stay with me A girl you met Over the Internet Whose been well abandoned You're amazing in that way I am but a foolish girl With too many words Not knowing how much weight Hangs on those words I admit it I admit it! Yes, Not uneducated But stupid nonetheless And you placed your trust in me And so I did trespass Now you're stuck In the invisible muck I didn't mean to create I can't go back And change what I have done So now I'm stuck too Cause I don't know Nor do you know What to do next We've already tried to drop the reins But still this remains I guess all we can try to do Is repair this 'ship But you can't trust me You can't love me And neither can I I'm desperate for a way To go back in time And erase the blip That damaged the 'ship And so the Titanic sinks slower and slower To Poseidon's lair And we can't seem to get anywhere One barely alive The other full of life, But guilt in her heart Lost, lost, lost Dark, dark, dark Just echos, echos, echos of the past That doesn't seem to ever last
To the black sheep with the rough diamond heart. Please read this, where ever  you are.
