Dec 2016
she said "it's an eye for an eye
so you'd best not miss"
but i'd take a thousand chances
til i had nothing left to give

she insists
but i never asked for any help
i'd rather sink than swim
if it meant i did it all myself

i wish
she'd have faith in me
i want her to love and trust
who i want myself to be

so i'm aiming past her shoulders
yeah, i'm shooting at the captain
i hold my breath and pull the trigger
i'm ready, whatever happens
