Oh Captain!

And you were always the escape plan from
The moment that it crossed my mind
When it was always an aside
You second-guessed the whisper from behind

All that it needed was a mat and a whistle away
All that it needed was a driver and a serenade
And every siren, every midnight
Every love light of the open flame
Proceeds to slow what I intended
Seems to block in with a dark delay

Oh, what are we to do?
What are we to do with you now?
Oh, what are we to do?
What are we to do with you now?
With you now

So we divided as we go
And leave a trail of whispers in the way
We haven't sorted out our plans
But all the notes, they are hard to shake

Oh, what are we to do?
What are we to do with you now?
Oh, what are we to do?
What are we to do with you now?
With you now

Can't stick the needle to the wheel or the finger to the loom
Born just a week apart, what kind of captain are you?
Oh, not a step to stick
Not enough to make it through

Can't see the border from a home
To an empty room
