A Glorious Shipwreck Lyrics

Pat The Bunny A Glorious Shipwreck

I spent my life drifting
To things that fall apart as soon as it gets hard
We live without leaders, but now there's nobody to steer
Captains go down with the ship, my friend, but there's no captains here

There's no petition we can sign to end poverty
Or to make "no" a word with teeth
I know there's not enough windows on this planet to break us free
But maybe one will be just enough for some dignity

Just do the dirt and walk away and don't say shit
My momma didn't raise no snitch
If anybody asks, well then I've never heard your name
No rest for the wicked till we've crossed the state

And common decency may lead us through a prison cell
Basic goodness take us to hell
But since we'll all return to dirt
Let's bring some stories for the worms

We don't know when
But the days will come again when their courts can't hold us in
We'll stand our ground no matter how many police appear
Captains go down with the ship, my friend, and we're all captains here
And just for a moment, we were all captains then
