Florence And The Machine Debuts "Ship To Wreck" (AUDIO And LYRICS)

Florence and the Machine has just released their brand new single "Ship to Wreck".  






The track is from their highly anticipated album "How Big How Blue How Beautiful", which is set to be released on June 2.

"I was thinking about my own self destructive side, and how you can make something only to tear it down, enjoy/destroy, create/devastate etc. When you're in that whirlwind, you often end up breaking the thing you love the most," Welch, 28, said about the song in a press release.

Check out the lyrics below...

(Verse 1)
Don't touch the sleeping pills, they mess with my head
Dredging of big white sharks, swimming in the bed
And here comes a killer whale, sing me to sleep
Thrashing the covers off, has me by its teeth

(Pre-Chorus)
And ah, my love remind me, what was it that I said?
I can't help but pull the earth around me to make my bed
And ah, my love remind me, what was it that I did?
Did I drink too much? Am I losing touch? Did I build a ship to wreck?

(Chorus)
To wreck, to wreck
To wreck, did I build this ship to wreck?

(Verse 2)
What's with the long face? Do you want more?
Thousands of red-eyed mice, scratching at the door
Don't let the currents catch you, cause you've been here before
The chair is an island, darling, you can't touch the floor

(Pre-Chorus) + (Chorus)



(Bridge)
Good God, the star, the skies
We are lost, into the breach we got tossed
And the world is coming in fast

(Pre-Chorus) + (Chorus) (2x)
