Captain Of My Sea
I am the captain of my sea
A sea that’s filled with goals and dreams
Each grain of sand is a crumbled nightmare
Shells represent the fear I have
The ocean is every tear I’ve dropped
Salty, happy, sad. It makes up the waves that come and pass.
Every day I sail on my boat, which is made of past troubles and wishes.
The treasure I protect is a chest locked with rope
Inside are kept memories: some bad, some good, some new, some old.
The wheel is my heart, my soul is my hat
The uniform I wear represents who I am.
Each creature that swims by are people who’ve come and passed
Their faces forgotten, they also forget mine
They won’t help me at all; they won’t guide me in any way
So I take on the wheel without fears in the way
I guide myself through every bad storm
Knowing it will pass and make my sea grow
Sometimes I’ll fall right out of my precious boat, and sink to the bottom
I’ll stare at the wounds I’ve made once myself
And wear the scars proudly on my skin
Then I swim right up because of how stubborn I truly am
Because I am the captain of my sea
A sea that’s filled with my goals and dreams
