Paddy And The Rats
Captain of My Soul
In stillness and silence, there's phantoms and ghosts
Alone in the darkness, I fear the most
Amongst all my demons, I'm a stranger tonight
From me, there's no place to hide

There's shiver in the nightmare, when I wake, I can't breathe
No pills, no kind words to stop this old fear
But if I end up sleeping with no dreams
I forget how to believe
I don't want to lose my belief

Hope is the rope I have lost but then I find it
It grows all the holes but I'm the captain of my soul
Hope for the best as I clasp my shaking hands
There's only love in the end, there's only love in the end

I follow my lush heart, there's immortal lamp flame
I slunk like a wise wolf between lust and shame
If I let myself tempted by the killing snake eyes
I forget my greedy vice

It takes a life planting trees to grow woods
But only takes a moment to burn down for good
But if I end up sleeping with no dreams
I forget how to believe
I don't want to lose my belief
Hope is the rope I have lost but then I find it
It grows all the holes but I'm the captain of my soul
Hope for the best as I clasp my shaking hands
There's only love in the end, there's only love in the end

As I walked through the night
I didn't waste all my time
With every wrong step I walked the road
'Cause I'm learning all my life
That's the way I will win the war
All your faults make you right

Hope is the rope I have lost but then I find it
It grows all the holes but I'm the captain of my soul
Hope for the best as I clasp my shaking hands
There's only love in the end, there's only love in the end

Hope is the rope I have lost but then I find it
It grows all the holes but I'm the captain of my soul
Hope for the best as I clasp my shaking hands
There's only love in the end, there's only love in the end
