Who builds a world upon a man?
My ship has sailed, this ship has sailed
It was loaded with jewels and gems
With my vices farewell for the best

Ah, ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah

The careless knot I knew wouldn't hold pulled you out to open sea
Silence drained us on all that was gold, then you got the worst of me
Shout out at the top of my lungs, as loud as the siren sings
Now watch as I slip away, slip away, ever
My hands untied as the sky be red

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

As empty as your open chest
I roam the hills deliriously
Walking in the shadows at the bottom of our ocean
They're drifting off to leave me weak

The careless knot I knew wouldn't hold pulled you out to open sea
Silence drained us on all that was gold, then you got the worst of me
Shout out at the top of my lungs as loud as the siren sings
Spiralling out of control, I had to set you free
Now watch as I slip away, slip away, ever
My hands untied as the sky be red

The careless knot I knew wouldn't hold pulled you out to open sea
Silence lingers on all that was gold, then you got the worst of me
Now watch as I slip away, slip away here
With my hands untied as the sky be red
