lyrics

Man is struggling
But he’s almost out
He tells me that the fire is controlled
And I trust the man
He is my captain
So I do my part then stop drop and roll
Man is suffering
Now he’s all alone
And he thinks that these are things we don’t know
But that’s not the case
I wear it on my face
I wear his trouble cause it's part of my own

He made a family but he had to leave
To save the fleet he made to take the seven seas
He made a family but he had to leave
To save the fleet he made

So stare at the wall my captain
We’re coming for you
Count the stars on the other side
We’re coming for you
Stare at the bars on your jail cell
We’re coming for you
Stare through the far to the groundswell
We’re coming for you
