Sinking Ship

WRITTEN BY: Amanda Behan/Michael Ryan Fuller

I'm out of breath
I've screamed too much
And still it seems 
You're out of touch

I don't know what it is
You don't seem to be getting this

I wanna be in love 
But not with you
I don't wanna be alone
But I'll make it through
I'm someone different
No one can tell me who
What the hell's the cause
It must be you

Going round and round
You're here then not
I'm so confused
Don't know what I've got

And you cannot answer me
So why don't you set me free

I wanna be in love 
But not with you
I don't wanna be alone
But I'll make it through
I'm someone different
No one can tell me who
What the hell's the cause
It must be you

Please shut your mouth
Don't make a sound
I'm rearranging chairs
On a ship that's going down

I wanna be in love 
But not with you
I don't wanna be alone
But I'll make it through
I'm someone different
No one can tell me who
What the hell's the cause
It must be you


Amanda sent me these words and I had to think about them for a while. This was a really hard song to write. If you could read what she wrote me - it was clear she wanted to leave, but she was looking for a reason NOT TO... and she never found it. That hurts like hell... hope you can relate on some level... =)
