As captain of this band of merry sailors I’m a black mark I’m a failureSo before you watch me drownI’m relinquishing command for something I don’t understand,this man’s about to turn his whole life upside downI set a course for a new shoreIt looked the same as the one beforeAnd I forgot what I’d been sailing forAnd why I thought this time would be differentI do most of this by feel and let go of the wheel the constellationsDo the navigation on their own.Whilst yearning for adventure, dreading censure in absentia,I would rather be at sea than be aloneI set a course for a new shoreIt looked the same as the one beforeAnd I forgot what I’d been sailing forAnd why I thought this time would be differentOff the charts we drewThey said there wasn’t anything but fairy talesI told them it was you, I told them you were everything a fairy tale could beThe boat sails byThe shore remains and so do II swear this time will be differentSongtexteI settled here on a new shoreMy lips were blue and my legs were soreAnd I forget if I was pushed or I jumped overboardAnd after all this time, what’s the difference?Land ho!
