I spent my life drifting To things that fall apart as soon as it gets hard We live without leaders, but now there's nobody to steer Captains go down with the ship, my friend, but there's no captains here There's no petition we can sign to end poverty Or to make "no" a word with teeth I know there's not enough windows on this planet to break us free But maybe one will be just enough for some dignity Just do the dirt and walk away and don't say shit My momma didn't raise no snitch If anybody asks, well then I've never heard your name No rest for the wicked till we've crossed the state And common decency may drag us through a prison cell Basic goodness take us to hell But since we'll all return to dirt Let's bring some stories for the worms We don't know when But the days will come again when their courts can't hold us in We'll stand our ground no matter how many police appear Captains go down with the ship, my friend, and we're all captains here And just for a moment, we were all captains then
