desert island ft. Jameson May Lyrics

I left you for an island

And the desert of my mind

I left you

I left you behind

I'm struggling for shelter now

But I don't really mind

Cause I left you

I left you behind

But I still carry you

In my mind

Though I left you

I left you behind

Why do I carry you

In my mind

I wanted to leave you

When I left you behind

I left you behind

Now the sea seems so close

Just a stone's throw, almost

Stones fill up my pockets

Weigh me down

Weigh me down

Just a stone's throw too close

Salt and sink for your ghost

Your stones fill my pockets

Weigh me down

Weigh me down

Why don't you

A coward on an island

Too afraid to face the sea

Don't you know

Can't you tell it's me

Tried drowning in smoke signals

Mark the sand H-E-L-P

You don't know

You don't ever see

How I carried you

Till I can't breathe

And I'll never

I'll never be free

Oh I carry you

And you'll never leave

Though I left you

You never left me

And the sea seems so close

Just a stone's throw, almost

Stones fill up my pockets

Weigh me down

Weigh me down

Just a stone's throw too close

Salt and sink for your ghost

Your stones fill my pockets

Weigh me down

Weigh me down

Why don't you

Crawl under the sand

And leave the past

Above the ground?

Grit under my fingernails

Or comfort won't be found

I'm buried like a secret

Even you don't care to know

Every second worth it

If I'm finally alone

Still the sea seems so close

Just a stone's throw, almost

Stones fill up my pockets

Weigh me down

Weigh me down

Just a stone's throw too close

Salt and sink for your ghost

Your stones fill my pockets

Weigh me down

Weigh me down

Why don't you
