I won't be here for long Oh, I know that I feel Oh, wait and go again, again Oh, look, I'm buried Like a cancer eating away inside of me I don't want your pity Only the promise that I'll be okay now But I am the captain of this ship Curious hands and fingertips The same as it was before here Here, back after all Why should I be hypnotized By the promise of a long life? Why should I hold hope In tiny, tiny dribbles that glide by? Why should I lean on everything upon? I won't be here long Oh, I know I'm a dreamer Still seems a truth I won't be long for here Oh, it's so, but I think I lay this On now your lips I'm drowning I am the captain of, oh, but, I'll be okay after all
