"Floater" lyrics

"Floater"

To my mistress the bridge, I don't feel well. I'll be leaving and you can't stop me
We've been carrying on too long
I'm sorry, but I'm gone. I've got a bad reputation to think about. I've been dirty, I've been wrong
Maybe someday they'll find that I've washed up
I'm stepping out to clear my head. I'm breathing in to fill my lungs. We're all dead
Farewell scenic highway overpass
It's better this way anyways. My lover the river makes a better soldier than a bride
But I left my heart at the side of her bed and she's got the warmest body that I've ever had
Drag the lake, you'll find it's full of love
Bring the children to the water and let them see what heartache did
This matrimony needs a witness, and you can teach them to swim
Don't let your dreamers grow up to be dead men. Drown us at birth, save her some time
Drifting on romantic holiday, breathless as her cold arms cover me. Drag the lake. You will find it is full of love

-Sincerely mine. Finally
