The Captain

Does your passion walk beside you?
Does it wash out in the rain?
Do you need a magic spell to get you out of bed each day?

Are you waiting to be captain
Of a ship caught in the storm?
Wanting to be someone that you've been since you were born

As the waves crash all around you
Say your last goodbyes
Thankful for it all
And how I've changed inside

Now power to the engines
Fight against the tide
Know that I'm the captain
Know I'll be alright

Is it eating at your insides?
Make you turn and face away
Can you stand to watch and stare
While your world just fades away?

You may end up finding joy
And leaving it behind
Chasing your own tail
Running circles in your mind

(Instrumental)

Slowly learning how to love you
And who you've come to be
Crazy as it is
This all was meant for me

Now push me in a straight line
Send me back to shore
All because I wanted something better than before
God I just need something so much better than before
