Right Away, Great Captain!
Cutting Off The Blood To Ten
[Verse 1]
Well I didn't think it would end like this
Cutting off the blood to ten
With a rope around my wrist
But I think that every one imagines why
And where it is they're gonna die
And when it happens do we fly?

[Chorus]
And I wished I could have told my son
That I was the coward one
It's never admirable when your father can't move on

[Verse 2]
Well I never thought that you would slip inside
Your brother's unfaithful wife
While the children were down the stairs
I saw what you were doing
And I wished that I would have burnt that goddamn door
Finding both of you on the floor
Realizing your bride's a whore
Really takes an enormous toll on your head
Well I didn't think that you could craft this song
Sleeping with the devil and all
And I can hear you sing along
[Chorus]
And I wished that I could have told the Lord
To sever me at the chord
Cause the moment I left I'd never come back no more

[Verse 3]
So hope that it actually ends for me this way
Cause tomorrow is another day
And I have to decide to stay or stay
For now I'll keep my hands around this thing
And wait for an Apostle to sing
You're never allowed to come in
So just sink or swim
