Lyrics Paddy and the Rats

Paddy and the Rats

Captain Of My Soul

In stillness and silence

There’s phantoms and ghosts

Alone in the darkness

I fear the most

Amongst all my demons

I’m a stranger tonight

From me there’s no place to hide

There’s shiver in the nightmare

When I wake I can’t breath

No pills, no kind words

To stop this old fear

But if I end up sleeping with no dreams

I forget how to believe

I don’t want to lose my belief

Hope is the rope

I have lost but then I find it

It grows all the holes

But I’m the captain of my soul

Hope for the best

As I clasp my shaking hands

There’s only love in the end

There’s only love in the end

I follow my lush heart

There’s immortal, lamp flame

I slunk like a wise wolf

Between lust and shame

If I let myself tempted

By the killing snake eyes

I forget my greedy vice

It takes a life planting trees to grow woods

But only takes a moment

to burn it down for good

But if I end up sleeping with no dreams

I forget how to believe

I don’t want to lose my belief

Hope is the rope

I have lost but then I find it

It grows all the holes

But I’m the captain of my soul

Hope for the best

As I clasp my shaking hands

There’s only love in the end

There’s only love in the end

As I walked through the night

I didn’t waste all my time

With every wrong step I walked the road

Cause I’m learning all my life

That’s the way I will win the war

All your faults make you right

Hope is the rope

I have lost but then I find it

It grows all the holes

But I’m the captain of my soul

Hope for the best

As I clasp my shaking hands

There’s only love in the end

There’s only love in the end

Hope is the rope

I have lost but then I find it

It grows all the holes

But I’m the captain of my soul

Hope for the best

As I clasp my shaking hands

There’s only love in the end

There’s only love in the end
