A Thousand Ships Lyrics

no one learns
from their mistakes
the pain gives
as much
as it takes

So next time you
say that love
doesnt mean a thing
ive seen it launch a thousand ships
and take its aim

This love has launched a
thousand ships to shores
to reclaim
an adultress

bloodstained
conviction

show me that
i hold more
in my chest
than a dark cavity
full of organs
and cancer

This love
has launched a thousand ships to shores
to reclaim
an adultress

bloodstained
conviction

Helen
(Helen)
No Helen
No Helen, now what have you done?
what have you done
(what have you done?)
Helen
(Helen)
No Helen
No Helen now what have you done?
what have you done?

This love
has launched a thousand ships
