Counterparts - Jumping Ship lyrics

rate me

As time passes by, I feel everything changing but me. I will not feel the

sting of defeat. I’ve watched days become months, become years. and I’ve

lost all faith in progression. I will never allow myself to exchange all my

morals for acceptance. If this is truly where I belong, I’ll fucking be

here until the end of time. I’ve watched everyone around me jump ship, and

I hope they’re left to sink. The current will carry us. I am proud of all

that I’ve become, and I’m well aware that I have steered myself in the

right direction. And life is your’s to destroy, I just can’t admire the

path you’ve chosen. I would rather isolate myself than be a walking

definition of travesty. I watched you do away with everything. I would love

nothing more than to watch this world swallow you whole. You were the

catalyst for your downfall. But where the rest have failed, we are bound to

succeed. And mark my fucking words, as long as we are breathing, we will

overcome. The integrity that we emanate day-to-day is unparalleled, and our

efforts will not go unnoticed. We will be remembered.
