Lyrics

You left it all in search of glory.
I stayed behind to tell your story.
It was all going so well,
'til you knew you didn't need me anymore.
You've done this before.

You lure them with your siren song,
oh, knowing all along
that the ship will never sail on from this place,
that the ship will never sail on from this place.

I thought this time you really meant it.
Thought you'd straighten out this world, but then you bent it.
On our way down that road,
'til you figured you should lighten your load.
Then you let go.

You lure them with your siren song,
oh, knowing all along
that the ship will never sail on from this place,
that the ship will never sail on from this place.

I should have known. They tried to tell me
what you'd take away, and what you'd sell me.
Can't remember why it seemed
like it was such a good idea at the time.
Now I'm last in line.

You lure them with your siren song,
oh, knowing all along
that the ship will never sail on from this place.
You lure them with your siren song,
oh, knowing all along
that the ship will never sail on, oh sail on.
Can you sail on, sail on from this place?
Better sail on, sail on, sail on.
