This old ship is struggling against these daunting seas Springing leaks and shivering in this tumultuous breeze But the damage wasn't done by the salt or by the spray It was the w*r I fought within myself every single day I was cursing at the mirror, I was hating every ghost And the storms just kept on rising along the treacherous coast.
To right a sinking ship, you gotta start within the frame You have to build a bond and learn to love your own name Silence that inner voice, tell the negativity to cease You’ll never find the shore until you find the inner peace It starts with you, or your soul will find a view Lost forever in the deep and cruel ocean blue.
The sea is still a monster, it’s as difficult as before The waves are still as heavy as they c***h against the door But the wood is now fortified, the iron has been cast Forgiving and kind, I’ve finally nailed the mast I’m no longer just adrift, I’m no longer just a prey Because I chose to love the captain at the end of every day.
You can patch the holes with gold, you can sail a silver line But if the captain hates the crew, the stars will never shine The weather doesn't change just because you want it to But the ship becomes a fortress when the heart is born anew.
To right a sinking ship, you gotta start within the frame You have to build a bond and learn to love your own name Silence that inner voice, tell the negativity to cease You’ll never find the shore until you find the inner peace.
