I'm a pirate. Fully in my whiskey now and My three sheets are sailing out. I can’t choke down on these words anymore, This liquor tongue is breaking out. Because you were my melody, A song I could sing by memory. But I can't, I won't buy you anymore. So I guess I'm a pirate now Sailing silently on this soundless sea. Bar tabs will drown every sound for now, even when Siren songs call me back to shore. They sing, "Hold on, come home" They sing, "I was wrong, so wrong" But I'm a pirate now Stealing songs, and steering Far, far away
