Sail Me Away

Sail me away
Sail me away from here
Sail me away
Sail me away from her

Those who cared had told me
Be careful, she’ll say what you want to hear without ever believing it herself.

She kept me around
As long as I remained useful to her.
Her deeds for me appeared friendly even sacrificial.
The truth is it was her charity, even hypocritical.

Sail me away
Sail me away from here
Sail me away
Sail me away from her

I loved her deeply once
I layed my heart open wide
Like to no one else had I.
Then she moved me to the side
Behaving like a co-dependent with new discovered freedom
Though she believed herself to be independent.
In circles she moved until her world
so dizzy and no man remained.
She found herself alone
But I was still there she only needed to reach out from her heart
But her heart lies.
Like she’s lied to me all these years.

She’s failed me
She’s failed me here
She’s failed me
She’s failed me everywhere.

Sail me away.
