lyrics
in my heart, through my skin
i feel your presence again
from my soul, to my brain
God forbid i look back since that day
the only ghost i ever saw was nothing like a ghost
and though i shied away from her, i wondered forever
if i was wrong
i'm no Jonathan Nolan, but i'm creating a new memento
to warn myself against everything that i've done
and i'm no Jane in a nursery, but i've got to get out of this room
i'm hiding in the walls behind frills and decorum
an orientation was more than enough to get Daniel O filling paper
so why is it taking me such a long time to get
words down when so much is happening?
my crew is sailing away, my crew is sailing away
dear mom, i'm sailing away, and nothing can be done now
my sailors are sailing away, which i always knew they would do
but in the grand scheme it was supposed to be with me
with me!
my mother and my brother are arguing again
i think it seems like my fault just because i can't fix it
when i shouted at you, i realized things of myself
i think that i'm more tired than i acknowledge
i have to get out of here
i have to get out of here
i'm doing something wrong; i should have left last year
since my crew is sailing away, my crew is sailing away
dear dad, i'm sailing away, and i bet you'll encourage it
my sailors are sailing away, just as i must now do
the only problem is they're going separate ways
separate ways!
i feel your presence again
from my soul, to my brain
God forbid i look back since that day
the only ghost i ever saw was nothing like a ghost
and though i shied away from her, i wondered forever
if i was wrong
i'm no Jonathan Nolan, but i'm creating a new memento
to warn myself against everything that i've done
and i'm no Jane in a nursery, but i've got to get out of this room
i'm hiding in the walls behind frills and decorum
an orientation was more than enough to get Daniel O filling paper
so why is it taking me such a long time to get
words down when so much is happening?
my crew is sailing away, my crew is sailing away
dear mom, i'm sailing away, and nothing can be done now
my sailors are sailing away, which i always knew they would do
but in the grand scheme it was supposed to be with me
with me!
my mother and my brother are arguing again
i think it seems like my fault just because i can't fix it
when i shouted at you, i realized things of myself
i think that i'm more tired than i acknowledge
i have to get out of here
i have to get out of here
i'm doing something wrong; i should have left last year
since my crew is sailing away, my crew is sailing away
dear dad, i'm sailing away, and i bet you'll encourage it
my sailors are sailing away, just as i must now do
the only problem is they're going separate ways
separate ways!
