Gray skies, overcast giving me blue eyes
Sparkle bright like cracks in a bottle, crooked lines
I'm fine filling time with wine
Filling my mind with fog and my blood with the fruit of the vine
You spill a glass and it's a mess when it comes out
Put it to your ear and you can hear how the sea sounds
When it's alone, not a sailor to be found
Out trying to find out whether it's round
Captain please, would you mind telling the breeze
To hold off while I'm trying to light a match
It's not like I'm catching a disease from this fog that I'm breathing
Just ignore the heaving
Breakers roar, like gathered masses in a coliseum
Set him up on the crest
Where he's his best and we can all see him
Being transparent, yet still filled with flotsam
Jets himself to the top and hopes he doesn't get caught
Man, it's funny how we say things are funny when they aren't at all
But ultimately that's our call
Sounds like I'm trying to stall
I just don't want you to know how things are really going
But you asked, so here it is, it's wide open
How did I get lost at sea?
Let's see if I can let go of everything on this boat
To see if I can really float
Anchors up, it's time to find a new berth/birth
Time to find out what all your pontificating is worth
You can talk all you want, but that wind won't fill the sails
And your hull's full of holes 'cause you've been coughing up nails
You're keelhauled, six feet under the waves
There's no rest in a watery grave
You feel small, like there's no one left who can save
Just go west, young man, and be brave
That's what they say, right?
But the moonlight illumines a new plight
The stars begin to fade and the Milky Way doesn't look right
And navigation is a fruitless endeavor
When you've ended up God knows where
And it feels like it's been forever
Never tell me the odds, because it will not change my behavior
And at least I'll have an excuse for my failures ages later
If I stay ignorant and blissful
Just cruise like a missile
Drift in the stars' general direction
Just hoping to grab a fistful
"Slipping through your fingers" is an old cliché
But if you don't reach, it can't possibly end that way
I told you it would be a mess
But drink deeply, 'cause this is me at my best
How did I get lost at sea?
Let's see if I can let go of everything on this boat
To see if I can really float
