Lifeboat Lyrics

I made you perfect in my mind

All your red flags, I was blind

All the warnings I ignore

I hoped it's different than before

I should have know that we'd go down in flames

Aboard a sinking ship, though I try in vain

'Love you the best, gotta keep you at arm's length (but our love is like a ship that's sinking and...)

Gotta save my life, gotta follow my gut instinct (she's just a lifeboat cuz I feel the ship goin' down)

I didn't mean to be unfaithful, but this ship just unable

To sail this voyage

I'm telling myself your not that way

But now I know I was fucking insane

I should have known better you would never change

I put you on a pedestal despite your shame

I only have myself to blame

Aboard a sinking ship, with nothing to gain

'Love you the best, gotta keep you at arm's length (but our love is like a ship that's sinking and...)

Gotta save my life, gotta follow my gut instinct (she's just a lifeboat cuz I feel the ship goin' down)

I didn't mean to be unfaithful, but this ship just unable

To sail this voyage

Three ex husbands should have given me a fucking clue

Two kids with different fathers, and countless ex boyfriends too

I was blinded by emotions and what I felt right from the start

So I had to find a lifeboat, armor for a broken heart

All the love and the support I don't get from you in return

Manipulative behavior only gonna crash and burn

Hold me prisoner in your room while you continue to provoke

No escaping your bombardment, fueling the hatred that bestows

I jumped into the lifeboat after escaping from your prison

Go!

'Love you the best, gotta keep you at arm's length (but our love is like a ship that's sinking and...)

Gotta save my life, gotta follow my gut instinct (she's just a lifeboat cuz I feel the ship goin' down)

I didn't mean to be unfaithful, but this ship just unable

To sail this voyage

Deep down I knew I had to keep at arm's length

Why didn't I listen to my gut instinct?

I didn't wanna be unfaithful, but this ship just unable

To sail this voyage
