"Down with the Ship" Lyrics

-So tell me what's the point of playing to bigger crowds
With a message a bit less clear
The perseverance would have been a waste of time
If we had lost respect for the ones that got us here
-Maybe if we'd gone more melodic the record sales would be less sporadic
Maybe if we'd gone more commercial the path we tread wouldn't have led to jason dunn's attic
Maybe if we'd gone more melodic people would've cared what this thing meant
Maybe if we'd gone more commercial my heart and soul wouldn't be on line for one cent
-But we've got too much respect for the ones that got us here
To just turn our backs on them
Too clear in our minds are the times we had to persevere
To just turn our backs on them
-And be something that we aren't and won't be -- determined to seek popularity
Forsaking a chance at prosperity -- we'll be true to what we are
-Maybe if we dumbed down the message
Maybe if we cared a little bit less about the futures of the ones that made us, fed us and paid us
We could have been something more
Now that we're at the end of the line I only wish I had said more
Now that our story is about to close I hope you know that we're going to go...
-DOWN WITH THE SHIP
DOWN IN FLAMES
DOWN WITH THE SHIP
DOWN IN FLAMES
-Back in 2005 we told you where we would be in a year-
Well it's been six and we're still the four that haven't changed and we're still right here
