Down With the Ship
by Billy Crockett

Album: Watermarks


Martin was ahead of his time
Time was so far behind
He had no eye for an eye in his point of view
What he could see
It was a beautiful dream
The trouble with dreaming things
Is seeing them come true

When you’re sailing on the high sea
When you set out on a hope trip
Sometimes you get to your bright tomorrow
Sometimes you’ve got to go down with the ship
Sometimes you’ve got to go down with the ship

Martin had the fight of his life
Stared right into the enemies’ eyes
Tried to wake them from their comfortable lies
That’s how ships go down
He wasn’t praying for a long white robe
Prayed for a brave heart and hands to hold
For people right here to sing and know
That we shall overcome

When you’re sailing on the high sea
When you set out on a hope trip
Sometimes you get to your bright tomorrow
Sometimes you’ve got to keep sailing on the high sea
Believing love has got a firm grip
And you’ll get to your bright tomorrow
Sometimes you’ve got to go down with the ship

The truth won’t die just because your hero falls
Someday all flesh will stand to see it all, see it all

And we’ll go sailing on the high sea
And we’ll set out on a hope trip
Put our eyes on a new horizon
And don’t look back
We’ll go sailing on the high sea
Believing love has got a firm grip
Set our eyes on a new tomorrow
Set our hearts to go down with the ship
Set our hearts to go down

Sometimes you’ve got to go down with the ship
