Another Sunken Anchor Lyrics

you were commander of the legion
but there was no legion, there was only command
and you led the table in decision
oh, but there was only indecision
and all hail the builder of this mansion
as its stolen lumber just splinters down
he taught us how to pick up our guns
kill everything in sigh and start back at number one
you are the darkness in comedy
you are the laughter in disease
you are the height of a tall tale
and you are as cold as the seas
you're just another sunken anchor
passed out in your lover's bed
locked out of the life you begged for
you're just another sunken anchor
you wrapped the diamond 'round her finger
she wrapped her heart and skin around you
and so bloomed the flower of good intention
but inside, you murdered the invention
you are the darkness in comedy
you are the laughter in disease
you are the height of a tall tale
and you are as cold as the seas
you're just another sunken anchor
passed out in your lover's bed
locked out of the life you begged for
you're just another sunken anchor
and i'd try to pull you out if i could
but what's the use in rescuing a fool?
you are the sad part loving
you are the noose hung from the tree
dangling the one you set free
adn you are the tarnish on the ring
you're just another sunken anchor
inside another lover's bed locked out of the arms you asked for
you're just another sunken anchor
stay down
