Martina Sorbara - This Ship Lyrics
Trying to read her palmWith a clenched fistCalling out for whatever's in storeAsking 'God, did the DevilPut you up to thisWhatever it is I can't take it any more'She says 'I'm gonna makeSomething of myself tonightGod and the Devil I'll show you upI can fight back and I just mightYour tempting business isn'tAll that tough'She's thrown all caution to the windHoping to catch it in her sails whenHer ship comes inBut this ship won't floatNo it just don'tParading around townWith her open woundsSaying hush now don't tell a soulAny charity will come too soon'I can get through this on my own'And she's recruiting sympathyLike it's an armyAnd as the front lines fallShe brings new lines upShe says keep on your tiptoes boysMy tissues scarringCollecting pity like change in a cupAnd she's thrown all caution to the windHoping to catch it in her sails whenHer ship comes inBut this ship won't floatNo, it just don'tShe won't make it worth her whileShe won't let get her downJust try hard to keep that smileBut it's just an upside down frownI said make it worth your whileI said let it get you downWhy try so hard to keep that smileWhen it's just an up side down frownTrying to read her palmWith a clenched fistCalling out for moreSaying, 'God and the devilYou won't get away with thisWhen my ship comes inI'll win this warGod and the devil you haven'tSeen the end of thisWhen my ship comes inI'll win this war'
