Ship In The Dock (Demo)
[Verse 1]
Tuesday at 2 a.m., long after you said goodnight
I put the coffee on, strong and I bought me some time
The roses you left me were dead on the desk to my right
A subtle reminder that nothing's designed to survive

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Love overcome is a battle half won
The view from both sides of the gun, well now

[Chorus]
I'm so afraid to be ready to change all these locks
To disconnect the dots
And I just can't take the pain, although make no mistake
'Cause it's time I untied all the knots

[Post-Chorus]
'Cause if there's one thing I know that I'm not
Well, that's a ship in the dock

[Verse 2]
The wind's picking up and I'm looking above for a sign
Your photograph hanging, a moment just clinging to life
But I've seen the top of those trees on the opposite side, eh
And if the grass isn't greener, then I'll know at least that I tried
[Pre-Chorus 2]
'Cause I won't let myself live in this world of "what ifs"
But it don't get much harder than this, oh

[Chorus]
I'm so afraid to be ready to change all these locks
To disconnect the dots
And I just can't take the pain, although make no mistake
'Cause it's time I untied all the knots

[Post-Chorus]
'Cause if there's one thing I know that I'm not
Well, that's a ship in the dock

[Chorus]
Well, I'm so afraid to be ready to change all these locks
To disconnect the dots
Oh, I just can't take the pain, although make no mistake
'Cause it's time I untied all the knots

[Post-Chorus]
'Cause if there's one thing I know that I'm not
Well, that's a ship in the dock, oh, eh

[Outro]
I know what I'm not
And that's a ship in the dock
