Captain Lyrics

By the harbor I harbor the strangest memories Older than I could ever be Stranded in nostalgia
So tonight I’ll try harder But it's hard to fix this spotlight on me In a cast that's taken places I’m unsure of where I want to be
Stand up, stand up And stand down I'll climb El Captain And jump off to cheers from the crowd
Stand up, stand up And stand out And I hope you take your camera To photograph my tears as they hit the ground
No one even listens The same way that no one ever laughs I'm taking the car out of the snow And wondering where the summer went to circled by your secrets
I'm hoping they don't include me At least I'm in good company Because there's no one else around Except me
Stand up, stand up And stand out I'll climb El Captain Just to watch the world slow itself
Stand up, stand up And stand out And I hope you took your camera Silence makes the loudest sound
It seems far too easy to say the same things I’ll choose my own way to use my life up Finally found a new way, say the same things In imaginary ways, I’ll use my life up
You were looking at pictures in the distance Hoping to see the future in your pictures Of the distance, hoping to see The future looking at pictures in the distance
Hoping to see the future through your pictures Of the distance hoping to see The future looking at pictures in the distance Hoping to see the future in your pictures
Of the distance, hoping to see The future looking at pictures in the distance Hoping to see the future in your pictures
