The End of You Lyrics

Sleater Kinney

Build for me your tightest ship, make the oars run swift and fast Send me out your strongest crew, make their hearts and minds steadfast Bless me with Athena there's no meaner, she's the best When we hit the roughest sea we'll need all we can get
You say, "Sink or swim" What a cruel, cruel phrase I'd rather fly Don't wanna be caught in this endless race
The first beast that will appear will entice us with money and fame If you listen long enough you'll forget there's anything else Tie me to the mast, of this ship and of this band Tie me to the greater things, the people that I love
You can walk the plank Do the dead man's float Never let them see Your heart is pounding full of hope
Let the last storm hit us, let it strike at the hardest part Turn us all to mutiny, turn this boat upside down I am not the captain, I am just another fan Sailing off the edge of truth into the end of you
Eye of the storm What a cruel, cruel myth There's no bigger spotlight Than shown on the ones brave enough to live
The end of you, the end of you, the end of you I'm lookin' for you The end of you, the end of you, the end of you I'm lookin' for you
