This Captain’s End

https://soundcloud.com/jpeter-ash/this-captains-end

As the ship goes down, I’m smiling
Wondering what this will do to me
This Captain’s End I’m finding
Is much easier than I thought it would be

As the ship goes down
As the ship goes down

The view up ahead
Has no solvable end
But for so many others
Now a pathway discovered

As the ship goes down, I’m laughing
A tenuous hold on reality
This Captain’s End I’m denying
Is so much funnier than I thought it would be

As the ship goes down
As the ship goes down

The roles that we choose
Become so deeply infused
We’re one and the same
Me and my Captain’s name

As the ship goes down, I’m crying
Mourning the loss of my future dreams
This Captain’s End I’m buying
Is more expensive than I thought it would be

As the ship goes down
As the ship goes down

Only seconds now
