The ship was sinking; we were drinking, singing one last song,

Casting our gold into the ocean.

You grabbed a bucket, started screaming, "Come on, come on",

Trying to slow the downward motion.

Back in the kingdom, we were kings and queens and Oh, so strong

That God himself could not contain us.

We never thought we'd be the shorter half of sword and gun.

Now god himself could never save us.

Waves of silver, waves of gold

Are coming now to take me,

To separate my body from my soul

And Jesus leaves or takes me.

Hopes of heaven, fears of hell

Tell me, what's the chance I'll make it.

All my other plans have failed,

And all this time I've faked it.

We started sinking, drinking water from the open sea

Losing our bodies to the ocean.

You grabbed my hand and started screaming, "rescue me"

Together fight the downward motion.

Back in the kingdom we were kings and queens and Oh, so strong

That god himself just had to show us.

We never thought we'd see the colder side of land and sea

But he's the only one who knows us.

Waves of silver, waves of gold

Are coming now to take me,

To separate my body from my soul

And Jesus either leaves or takes me.

Hopes of heaven, fears of hell

Tell me, what's the chance I'll make it.

All my other plans have failed,

And all this time I've faked it.

I was probably 18 the first time I heard this kid...Why he still struggles is amazing. perhaps a huge complement to his character? selling out might not have been an option for him?

i miss when he sang like this. his new voice (dunno if due to cigarettes or what) is this terrible hipster twang and sounds like everyone else. go back to your roots josiah!!! so much more soul

Every once in a while the piano part of this song gets stuck in my head. I always have to figure out where it's from and it leads me back to this song. I'm never disappointed. This song is amazing. I wish the studio version was just you and the piano. No other instruments. But oh well. That was your decision to make not ours. You're still amazing none the less ☺️☺️

I remember i was introduced to this exact video by this girl whom i met online, from Yahoo! Answers, back in 2008, when i was 21. And it's 2014 now its like 5-6 years ago. Even though we never met in person, i still remember those times. We stopped contacting each other in the fall cuz she was busy with college and stuff, and so got online lesser and lesser each time till we eventually faded and then i went to enlist in the Army and that's the point where it all ended.So person by the named of Bretagne Sales(as i still remember how it's spelled as), of Charleston, SC., if you happened to see this. This is Mitchell Aguilera. If you still remember me? cuz i still remember you up to this day. PLEASE get back to this as i'm really fond of knowing how and what you are doing now and it would be amazing if we could keep in contact again.
