Perfect Driftwood Songtext
von Free Throw

There′s nothing worse than being told that what you have is worthless
It makes you feel like everything you've done is without certainty
Call forth the first mate
Tell them that the sails have been set the wrong way

Blame always falls on somebody else
Other than the person that set the sails
It′s an age-old mistake
(It's an age-old mistake)
It's an age-old mistake

Sometimes you have to question
The fact that decisions you made
Were never destined to be the right one
A situation tighter than the ropes you cling to life from
Though drowning′s a means to escape


You still refuse to taper off into anything
That′s too much for you to handle
Life spent on a gamble
I'll tell you right now, light a candle in our name
If the ship goes down,
We′ll celebrate the same
Where was doubt when all of this
Was nothing more than bullshit?
Where was fear when all of this
Was nothing more than fun?
We fought our way for nothing to making just the best of it
We've scratched and clawed at relevance
To do what we have done
It′s okay to admit that we have done better
Than what they thought that we could scrape up
It's a shame to think that even though
The best is a subjective term
People hold you to a standard
Without understanding it′s fucked

I'll tell you right now
Light a candle in my name
If the ship goes down,
I'll celebrate the shame

Where was doubt when all of this was nothing more than bullshit?
Where was fear when all of this was nothing more than fun?
We fought our way for nothing, to making just the best of it
We′ve scratched and clawed to relevance
To do what we have done
It′s a shame to think that even though
The best is subjective
You're held to a standard without understanding
It′s a shame to think that even though
The best is subjective
You're held to a standard without understanding it′s fucked
