Less Than Jake : Abandon Ship Lyrics

Give me some religion
Pass the wine cause this time
I can’t hold it in like I always did
Give me some more T.V.
Make it loud make believe
I’m in desperate need for some company

Attention this is not a test
Help me get this moving target
Off my chest from my closest friends
Save me from this hopelessness
Talk some sense into this head
About this endless S.O.S.

Treading water with weights around my neck
A shipwreck of reckless accidents
Over boarded and I’m about to quit
head first, high dive in this deep end
Abandon ship 'cause its sinking way too quick

Give me some forgiveness,
and I'll try cause this time
if I pull the pin, I'll be blown to bits
Give me some more music,
I'll sit and read the lyrics
Like a bible, a gospel, I'll sing along

Attention, this is not a test
help me swim to shore before unconsciousness
My hands feel like they're made of bricks
Save me from this hopelessness,
talk some sense into this head
And I'll stop this endless S.O.S

Treading water with weights around my neck
A shipwreck of reckless accidents
Over boarded and I’m about to quit
Head first, high dive in this deep end
Abandon ship 'cause its sinking way too quick

I can’t listen to all the reasons
I just need one more thing to believe in
The one thing that will keep me breathing
I’ll kiss the dirt when I hit dry land

Treading water with weights around my neck
A shipwreck of reckless accidents
Over boarded and I’m about to quit
head first high dive in this deep end
Abandon ship 'cause its sinking way too quick

I think this song is about needing a reason to keep going on after life has just put you down time after time.

"Give me some religion"
"Give me some more tv, make it loud, make believe
I'm in desperate need for some company"
"Give me some forgiveness and I'll try"
"Give me some more music I'll sit and read the lyrics like a bible, a gospel, a sing-a-long"
^One of my favorite lines ever. It's so resoundingly true.^
"I just need one more thing to believe in
The one thing that will keep me breathing"

When you hit rock bottom, you ask yourself "why bother?", but you know you have to keep trying, so you have to look for some reason to keep you going and pushing on.

I hope you can find your reason when you get there.
