Crazy as I may,
Make my way through this world,
Oh, it's for no one but me to say,
What direction I should turn in now

Cause I am the captain of this ship,
Wanting eyes and kissing lips
The same as it was,
And will remain until I'm done and gone

Strange, but it seems,
There's mutiny brewing inside of me now
I don't want your pity,
Just the promise that I'll be alright

Cause I am the captain of this ship,
Curious hands and fingertips
The same as it was,
And will be until I'm gone

Oh, I know I'm a dreamer,
Still think it's strange?
I won't be here for long
Oh, I know that I feel,
Oh, wait and go again, again

Oh, look, I'm buried,
Like a cancer eating away inside of me
I don't want your pity,
Only the promise that I'll be okay now

But I am the captain of this ship,
Curious hands and fingertips
The same as it was before here,
Here, back after all

Why should I be hypnotized,
By the promise of a long life?
Why should I hold hope,
In tiny, tiny dribbles that glide by?
Why should I lean on everything upon
I won't be here long

Oh, I know I'm a dreamer,
Still seems a truth
I won't be long for here
Oh, it's so, but I think I lay this,
On now your lips
I'm drowning

I am the captain of oh but, I'll be okay after all
