The Captain Is Out to Lunch and the Sailors Have Taken Over the Ship

It's been a long ride
Echoing embers of lost time
Eager to get away
The darkness is my one escape
I look for snowflakes in the sand
And lay them down on surfaces
Until I forget how it feels
To be meaningless

I'm counting down on broken clocks
Now my heart keeps pumping
Will it ever stop?
I keep ticking away
Like a time bomb in a masquerade
I think tonight's the night I'll lose all of my senses

This is
A eulogy
For lost youth
And broken dreams
In the palm of my hand
I hold the key
To the end of misery
But the start of my defeat
I can't believe it's come to this
Nosebleeds and selfish mindlessness
Glass shards to rid the pain
I haven't slept in fucking days
Whiskey until my liver bleeds
These open veins could fill the sea
I think I'll drown amongst the words
What could have been

I turned to crutches just to find the strength to carry on
Searching for reasons to my pain and why I feel alone
To think I made it 'til this long before I lost control
Maybe the key is hiding in the past when I was young
I swore I'd never be the person that I've now become
So on the edge of life just hoping I can keep it up
But when the view from far above is looking beautiful
Its hard to climb back down without letting go

Pull me up, I've gone insane
Pull me up, I've gone insane
Pull me up, I've gone insane
Pull me up, I've gone insane
It's too fucking late
It's too fucking late
