My Sad Captains

(album: The Take Off And Landing Of Everything - 2014)

I'm running out of miracles
​Oh my soul
And the streets alive with one-man shows
​Oh my soul
The corner boys were moved along
​Oh my soul
We're plummeting like crippled crows
​Oh my soul
​
Oh long before you and I were born
Others beat these benches with their empty cups
To the night and it's stars
To be here and now and who we are
​
Another sunrise with my sad captains
With who I choose to lose my mind
And if it's so we only pass this way but once
What a perfect waste of time
​
The BMX apothecary
Oh my soul
The architect of infamy
Oh my soul
For each and every train we missed
Oh my soul
A bitter little Eucharist
Oh my soul

Oh long before you and I were born
Others beat these benches with their empty cups
To the night and it's stars
To be here and now and who we are

Another sunrise with my sad captains
With who I choose to lose my mind
And if it's so we only pass this way but once
What a perfect waste of time

Another sunrise with my sad captains
With who I choose to lose my mind
And if it's so we only pass this way but once
What a perfect waste of time

Another sunrise with my sad captains
With who I choose to lose my mind
And if it's so we only pass this way but once
What a perfect waste of time

What a perfect waste of time
