[Verse 1]
Last night, I drifted down to the docks
The water, glittering and black
The snow fell lightly and disappeared
I felt the old ropes grow slack

[Chorus]
I thought I'd dissolve
When the beacon revolved
I just get carried, so carried
Carried away

[Verse 2]
Once, I had a ship
Yes, I had a map
I had the wind
Like a tree has sap

[Chorus]
I sank into
These banks of clay
I just get carried, so carried
Carried...

[Bridge]
Those rooms were freezing
And always dark
But where we were never mattered
Your head was golden
There was lightning in your arms
And then the glass shattered
[Verse 3]
It was noon at midnight
The day that never ends
The lamp, it whispers
And makes amends

[Chorus]
Everything was more
Than I took it for
I just get carried, so carried
Carried away

[Instrumental Outro]
