Captain
Lyrics
I'm not a good brother
I'm not a good son
I over analyze
Fear what I'll become
Wage war between my shoulders
I burn and I run
I am just a vessel floating
In the waves when the day is done
And I
Can't tell the world
Can't talk to my friends
They don't understand it all
Not quite yet
I'm a midnight writer
With his hopes and regrets
Anthems and remedies
Boxed up in my head
Oh I know
We really don't know much of anything anymore
Anymore
We get back up
Again we fall
Mend our bones
Keep the truths we know alive
I've got a little sister
Much stronger than I am
Hears more screaming than laughter
Never got to pretend
A safe haven and a fire
For those lost out at sea
A lighthouse in the darkness
An anchor to me
I knew my father too well
Drowned himself when I was 3
Liquor and leprosy
All sickness to me
My mother is a fighter
Much more than I need
Yet I thank the world for her,
And the lines she force feeds
Singing
Oh I know
We really don't know much of anything anymore
Anymore
We get back up
Again we fall
Mend our bones
Keep the truths we know alive
I'm the worst kind of person
Detached and latched onto spite
And the lust I love to choose
Never likes to spend the night
It's the worst kind of person that
Hurts badly and believes its fun
Feeling good is uncomfortable
Afraid so they stay numb
Let the gulls pick at my bones
As the hull goes under
I wanted it this way
But did it need to be, I wonder
The storm flees as quick as it came
I attempt to tame the rain
And thunder
And what's left as I decay
Is buried deep beneath my anger
Hey
Oh I know
We really don't know much of anything anymore
Anymore
We get back up
Again we fall
Mend our bones
Keep the truths we know alive
Sinkers
And swimmers
To the tides
