David Bazan
Of Up and Coming Monarchs
[Verse 1]
Sunken ships rest
Upon the ocean floor
Where I've made my home
To dodge the draft once more

[Verse 2]
There once was a time
One could flee to the north
But Canada's not what she used to be
Boycott the war, well she could not afford to
Thanks to the new American queen

[Chorus]
Swim with me and we'll escape
All the trouble of the present age
Finally free

[Verse 3]
The mermaids teach us
How to breath beneath
The line that now divides
Action from apathy

[Chorus]
Swim with me and we'll escape
All the trouble of the present age
Finally free
