1. Let me off of this boat

I'm sick of this ride

the world is heading ever southward

Emi

and I can't stay in here

2. And you're lying awake

away on your side

the feeling comes in waves and burns us

and I don't wanna die

3. From your slippery hands

to the line of your throat

the fever now consumes us both

in a fire now we will go

R: Santa Maria

Emi

why did you have to go

Santa Maria

stop

one day we will know

4. In a bowing of heads and a passing of hands

and all we thought they would understand

Emi

is lost and they won't know

5. And what have we left

it's all that we got

there is no x to mark our spot

what's past is done and gone

R: Santa Maria

why did you have to burn

Santa Maria

one day you will learn
