Save The Ship

I am the oldest one
One among heavy litter
We must have lost the course
Of course I won't tell the youngers
Welcome back come aboard
Take a map draw the oar
There's a crack in the hull
But keep it quiet keep it low

Smile onward
God's love is so kind
No one can tell you
Who is the captain
Is anyone gonna save the ship
Ocean water keeps coming in
And nothing will make it quit

I climb to the highest point
I pray for a shoal to come under
I stare into the eyes of ghosts
The crew is starting to whisper
Majors all have to meet
You might want to take a seat
There's a crack in the hull
So keep it quiet keep it low

Smile onward
God's love is so kind
No one can tell you
Who is the captain
Is anyone gonna save the ship
No shit
Water keeps coming in
And nothing will make it quit

Used to know who
Not anymore
Are we gonna make it?
And what does make it mean?
