Lyrics Jimmy Needham

Jimmy Needham

Sirens

Have you ever made a promise

You wanted to keep

But keeping up with promises

Was never too easy

So you thought maybe if you tried hard

Maybe if you're die hard

Maybe you could win one game

For the team

But the voice of an angel

Was singing a song

You hardly noticed you're singing along

Before you really knew what hit

You were on a sinking ship

Just another sailor that's

Lost at sea

Your knuckles are white but

The harder you try you're

Still losing the fight

Just wondering why

Why can't I

Silence the Sirens

I hear ‘em

They're singing

I feel it pulling me under

Silence the Sirens

Rid their throats of poison notes

And sing a better song for me

Like showing up with a knife to a nuke war

I never knew what I was in for

Pull the ripcord

Plane's going down

Six feet down

Underground

Never make a sound no more

Like putting a monster inside of a cage

Lock it all up but it can't do a thing

Gonna be free

Free anyway

Begging for grace

Sing a new song

A beautiful song

Right now I'm needing You to

Silence the Sirens

I hear' em

They're singing

I feel it pulling me under

Silence the Sirens

Rid their throats of poison notes

And sing a better song for me

A hundred thousand voices

Ringin in my ears

The only hope for me is You

I hear them singing now

I need to hear You louder

Drown them out before they drown me too

Silence the Sirens

I hear' em

They're singing

I feel it pulling me under

Silence the Sirens

Rid their throats of poison notes

And sing

And sing

Silence the Sirens

I hear' em

They're singing

I feel it pulling me under

Silence the Sirens

Rid their throats of poison notes

And sing a better song for me
