There's nothing that I can do to calm the night
There's nothing I can say to make it all right
Do you feel like you're putting up with too much?
Do you feel like your love has become a crutch?
Drink the battleships and taint your love
It's in your heart, it's in your blood
You're out here with the wind and the seagulls
Meanwhile the water is leaking into the ship's hull
But this ship you're on it seems so far from shore
And you don't know if you can swim back anymore
Drink the battleships and taint your love
You've got to fight for what you love
Caught up in the future, waiting for the past
Hope that running forward will make these feelings pass
There's nothing I can do to calm the night
But I will hold your hand and say it'll be all right
Drink the battleships and taint your love
It's in your heart, it's in your blood
Drink the battleships and taint your love
You've got to fight for what you love
