Like ships in the night
You keep passing me by,
Just wasting time,

trying to prove who's right
And if it all goes crashing into the sea
If it's just you and me,

trying to find the light

Like ships in the night, letting cannonballs fly,

say what you mean and it turns to a fight
Fist fly from my mouth as it turns south
You're down the driveway, I'm on the couch

Chasing your dreams since the violent fifth grade
Trying to believe in your silent own way
Cuz we'll be okay, I'm not going to wait

Have you watched it 14 as it went down the drain,
hip-hop stayed the same and your mom's moved away,
how many of our parents seem to make it anyway

we're just fumbling through the gray
trying to find a heart that's not walking Away.


Turn the lights down low, walk these halls alone we can feel so far from so
Close.


Like ships in the night
You keep passing me by,
Just wasting time,

trying to prove who's right
And if it all goes crashing into the sea
If it's just you and me,

trying to find the light like ships in the night, there passing
Me by, there passing me by, like ships in the night.



I'm at the airport waitin' on a second plane had to pack you had cramps and
I was late headed to a read carpet thay wont know my name right ridding in

Silence all that we wanna say bout to bord when you call on the phone you
Say I'm sorry I'll be waiting at home feels like were burning this out on
Our own trying to find our way down a road we don't know.


Turn the lights down low, walk these halls alone, we can feel so far from so
Close. like ships in the night thay keep passing me by, just wasting time

Trying to prove who's right and if it all goes crashing into the sea if it's
Just you and me trying to find the light like ships in the night, there
Passing me by, there passing me by, like ships in the night.
