The Lumineers – Submarines Lyrics:
I believe submarines
Underneath deep blue seas
Saw the flags: Japanese
No one will believe me
Ran back to the town bar
And I told the people how
I had seen the submarine
And everyone laughed aloud
I did spy periscopes
Dead of night on the eastern coast
The police made them jokes
Told me I’d seen a ghost
Everyone thinks I’m a liar
No one knows the truth
If it was a bigger fire
I would be on the roof
Ships will rust in Baldwin Bay (Let me go!)
No one trusts what I say (I don’t know!)
Oh my God, no one paid (Attention!)
Overnight my hair turned gray (Oh oh oh!)
In the end it boils down to credibility
I had none, so I will die with the secrets of the sea
(Submarine! Can’t find me! Submarine!)
Submarine…
(Submarine!)
