[Verse 1]
Should've listened to the warning
No one set out for darker skies
Too stubborn to save ourselves
On the course to our demise

As the storm closes in around us
Three sheets to the wind
Until they drown us

[Pre-Chorus]
Mayday!
Mayday!
Can anybody read me?
We've gone astray
Like stones, we just keep sinking

[Chorus]
Mayday!
We're going under
Made our distress call
But we know it's too late (Mayday!)

Mayday!
The storm's getting stronger
The waves crashing and we're laughing
As we wash away
[Verse 2]
They say it's not about the destination
But the journey that we take instead
However
Remember:
You can't swim forever
Abandon ship and you're already dead

And as the storm closes in
Around us
They'll say in the end
They never found us

[Pre-Chorus]
Mayday!
Mayday!
Can anybody read me?
We've gone astray
Like stones, we just keep sinking

[Chorus]
Mayday!
We're going under
Made our distress call
But we know it's too late (Mayday!)
Mayday!
The storm's getting stronger
The waves crashing and we're laughing
As we wash away

[Bridge]
Sent out a SOS
But we already know:
Only a miracle
Can save our souls

Maybe we were too naive
To believe in anything
Maybe we have always been destined to be
Just another beautiful
Beautiful funeral at sea

[Chorus]
Mayday!
We're going under
Made our distress call
But we know it's too late (Mayday!)

Mayday!
The storm's getting stronger
The waves crashing and we're laughing
As we wash away
[Outro]
Mayday! (Mayday!)
Mayday! (Mayday!)
