ribbons of war part 2: the captain - the extraordinaires lyrics
the captain:
here’s the tale i never lived to tell
this is my farewell:
when we were younger lovers
it was easier to bear
i, a man of open sea
and her, of open air
open sails and k!ller whales
an ocean life for me
but soaring wings and weightless things
were for my wife*to*be
opposites attracted us like magnets to the poles
but people are much different than my handy compass rose
time was unforgiving
and our love fell in disrepair
i prepared for war, as she tied ribbons in her hair
ribbons of war
battle in her hair
she was in her airplane
and i was in my boat
when she lost control
the explosion k!lled us both
as our ships went down in flames
our ashes stayed afloat
in life, we were not meant to be
in death, we are so close
in death we finally mix
as we sink in the abyss
swinging on that swing set
and walking hand*in*hand
if only we had found a love
and kept it on dry land
looking down on city lights and up at starry nights
i hated having words
but you’re so pretty when you fight
but now we’re sinking…
fast
down here at the bottom we can mingle with the fish
in death we finally mix, my love
give in to the abyss
down here at the bottom we can mingle with the fish
in death we finally mix, my love
give in to the abyss
oh, oh
oh, oh
oh, oh
oh, oh
oh, oh
oh, oh
oh, oh
