Captain Lyrics

Winds blow, currents flow

Have you been caught in the undertow

Have you been damned with your head in the sand

Have you been trapped on a craft unmanned

I dreamt I was lost at sea

Vultures above laughing at me

And when I wake, am I naive

There is no difference to be seen

They'll say there ain't a chance to acquit

Between prophecies and proverbs and the venom they spit

But who's the captain of the ship

And who is going down

When the sails are stripped

The stars tonight are shining bright

Indifferent as always to our plight

And from down here it looks to me

Like a good sky to die beneath

They'll say there ain't a chance to acquit

Between prophecies and proverbs and the venom they spit

But who's the captain of the ship

And who is going down

They'll say there ain't a chance to acquit (Blood and apathy)

Between prophecies and proverbs and the venom they spit

(Are we so used to injury and abuse)

But who's the captain of the ship (If in this game there's no winning)

And who is going down (Then we'll just have to change the rules)

They'll say there ain't a chance to acquit (Blood and apathy)

Between prophecies and proverbs and the venom they spit

(Are we so used to injury and abuse)

But who's the captain of the ship (If in this game there's no winning)

And who is going down (Then I guess we've got nothing left to lose)
