lyrics

I’ve spent my life, climbing waves
grabbing on as they slip away
too much sea to navigate

I’m fighting wind, fighting rain
staying true, but I’m afraid
‘n holding on, anyway

It’s a hard ship to sail
When I’m out here in the open,
It’s a hard ship to sail,
When there’s nothing but the ocean

Well, I’ve had more than a couple days
up and down, yea it’s kinda strange
I got stuff … that I really want to change

It’s a hard ship to sail
When I’m out here in the open,
It’s a hard ship to sail,
When there’s nothing but the ocean

It’s a hard ship to sail
When I’m out here in the open,
It’s a hard ship to sail,
When there’s nothing but the ocean

I’m here inside this broken boat
so full’a holes it barely floats;
but I still got this, little bit of rope

I’m here inside a broken boat
so full of holes it barely floats
but I still got this little bit of rope

I’m here inside a broken boat
so full of holes it barely floats
but I still got this little bit of rope

I’m here inside a broken boat
so full of holes it barely floats
but I still got this little bit of rope

It’s a hard ship to sail
When I’m out here in the open,
It’s a hard ship to sail,
When there’s nothing but the ocean

It’s a hard ship to sail
When I’m out here
