The Life Of A Pirate

It’s not easy to be this complicated

Cause I lose my way, I change my mind

And I’m more recently jaded

Or I’ll be indecisive, and always end up choosing

The wrong thing

But I can guarantee you’ll never hear me say

That all I want is a home, a family, a porch swing

'Cause I wanna be a pirate,

That’s one thing I’ve decided

It’s the only thing that could ever intrigue me

There’s no start or end in sight and

I guess I’ll have to try it

Worse case-I’ll get swallowed by the deep blue sea

There’s no more tryin' to fight it

The pain I’ll leave behind me

The sweet imperfections of a hot mess of a girl

And I believe in miracles

But there’s no way that I’ll

Ever fit in

To the modern way of livin',

It's just not me

Work a, 9 to 5, live in complacency

And I gave it my all, I tried-really I swear

For a girl on her own

But after over-analyzin everything there is here

It’s time, for my ship and fresh air

'Cause I wanna be a pirate,

That’s one thing I’ve decided

It’s the only thing that could ever intrigue me

There’s no start or end in sight and

I guess I’ll have to try it

Worse case-I’ll get swallowed by the deep blue sea

There’s no more tryin' to fight it

The pain I’ll leave behind me

The sweet imperfections of a hot mess of a girl

And if I know me, like I think I know me

I’ll try to bargain with myself

I’ll tell myself it’s really not that bad

And I’ll try to stick it out

A little longer in society never killed no one

But I can tell you, it’s a guarantee that I’ll

Always run

Away from every problem or severed relationship

'Cause that’s who I am

I wanna be a pirate cause they get to be

Whoever they want on the deep blue sea

Here I come
