Narrative - Pacific Lyrics

It's with a heavy heart that I write this letter for anyone who could be bothered to read it
And even I, as the author, can hardly bear it because who the hell would want to hear any of this shit?
It's far too late at night to be thinking clearly and I'm losing hold of any hope
So chuck me off this ship. I'm far beyond desperate. I can't keep my grip on this sinking life boat

But I want you to know that everything I ever told you was a lie
I was never doing okay and I won't ever be alright
I just thought you might like to know before it's too late

I'm stuck inside a bottle dropped off a ship at sea
I won't last much longer because I think I've sprung a leak
And by the time I reach the shore it won't matter anymore
Because the note was impossible for you to read in the first place

Captain, Captain, I have to get off this ship
I don't care where the dock is. I don't even want to find it anymore
I don't mind if I drown now because if there's only one thing that I've found out

It's that there was never any hope that I'd make it
It was silly of me to dream of the smallest chance that I'd make it

I'm stuck inside a bottle dropped off a ship at sea
I won't last much longer because I think I've sprung a leak
And by the time I reach the shore it won't matter anymore
Because the note was impossible for you to read in the first place

There was never any indication about my low morale
And though I'm terrified of water, I can somehow say that it looks welcoming now
The crack above my head is spreading and I can hear the stress on the glass
I haven't sunk yet but it sure feels like I have
How far to the bottom? I don't wanna see the surface now
There is no up anymore. The only way out is down

I'm stuck inside a bottle dropped off a ship at sea
I don't wanna last much longer. there's nothing left here for me
And now I've reached the shore and I wanna go back out in the tide
The Pacific is my home now because out there, no one sees me for miles

Captain, Captain, don't name your ship for this boy who was lost at sea
It'll only bring bad luck to anything that shares its name with a wreck like me
Captain, Captain, don't name your ship for this boy who was lost at sea
It'll only bring bad luck to anything that shares its name with a wreck like me
