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
