It's hard being perfect in a world where it's physically impossible when everybody being flawed Don't expect me to be your Jack's Mannequin I have my flaws and i'm proud to be human I wouldn't want to be someone who never has a defect at all I want to come off as human and real for others My ship usually sinks daily But i'm the Captain so i got this Or it will be a mental Lusitania Causing me to prepare for war Towards my conflicting thoughts I won't wait like President Wilson Action will be called upon But i won't waste a second I'm keeping this ship above water My passengers will be safe It's all on my shoulders Keep your cannons holstered We don't want this to really happen Send your youth back home They didn't want this. I sure in hell didn't either.

Captain Of My Own Ship
It's hard being perfect in a world where it's physically impossible when everybody being flawed Don't expect me to be your Jack's Mannequin I have my flaws and i'm proud to be human I wouldn't want to be someone who never has a defect at all I want to come off as human and real for others My ship usually sinks daily But i'm the Captain so i got this Or it will be a mental Lusitania Causing me to prepare for war Towards my conflicting thoughts I won't wait like President Wilson Action will be called upon But i won't waste a second I'm keeping this ship above water My passengers will be safe It's all on my shoulders Keep your cannons holstered We don't want this to really happen Send your youth back home They didn't want this. I sure in hell didn't either.
