they ask where i've been and i tell them paradise
the seven seas, yes i've sailed them twice
cast iron eyes and a heart of ice
i killed old me; a sacrifice
they ask where i've been and i tell them right here
sailing the of nights away with 4 cans of beers
getting high just to get by
sailing nights and sailing the skies
they ask where i've been and i tell them the world
but they don't understand my mind is
trick or treat
shhhh or speak
happy and sad
walking with bloodied-up feet
they ask where i've been and i reply with a smile
i say i followed where the new winds are blowing
they care where i've been
but don't care where i'm going
