Oh No! Oh My! - The Boy With An Anchor lyrics

I am the boy with an anchor I drive a small ship that's not worth living in His name is Carlsbad Danger He fought in a war But what good was it for? I'm on the phone with my father We're planning out rivers And how they run through like friends We can play with life later Jump over the side To try to drown all the time I tried to write I tried to love But all my life I've failed at both I've held my breath for far too long And now I'm scared of growing old I've been building a fire For time and it puts up a hell of a fight The weather's getting colder And I wish it were warmer For once I wish at least it'd try I am a bitter cake baker And there's loads of dishes But all you'll ever do is dine I am a boy who's in danger Please tell me wife "He made sense of his life" I tried to write I tried to love But all my life I've failed at both I've held my breath for for too long And now scared of growing old To tell the truth about it I don't know where to go And there's no crime cruel As to live alone I sail the ship into the shore 'Til all the water leaks aboard I take her down into the depths And leave a Captain with regrets I am a boy with an anchor I leave a boy with an anchor
