​ionnalee – OPEN SEA lyrics

[Verse 1]
Who builds a world upon a man?
My ship has sailed, this ship has sailed
It was loaded with jewels and gems
Wave my vices farewell for the best

[Pre-Chorus]
(Ah, ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah)

[Chorus]
The careless knot I knew wouldn't hold
Pulled you out to open sea
Silence drained us on all that was golden
You got the worst of me
Shouting at the top of my lungs
As loud as the siren sings
Now I watch it all slip away, slip away here
With my hands untied as the sky bleed red

[Interlude]
(Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

[Verse 2]
As empty as your open chest
I roam the hills deliriously
Walk in the shatters at the bottom of our ocean
You're drifting off to leave me clean

[Chorus]
The careless knot I knew wouldn't hold
Pulled you out to open sea
Silence drained us on all that was golden
You got the worst of me
Shouting at the top of my lungs
As loud as the siren sings
Spiralling out of control
I had to set you free
Now I watch it all slip away, slip away here
With my hands untied as the sky bleed red

[Chorus]
The careless knot I knew wouldn't hold
Pulled you out to open sea
Silence drained us on all that was golden
You got the worst of me
Now I watch it all slip away, slip away here
With my hands untied as the sky bleed red
