[Verse 1]
I’m a captain who’s lost at sea,
If I go under, we all go under, don't you see?
Hands on the wheel, but they don't feel like mine,
Tides keep pulling, and I'm losing light to the night.
It’s like I’m fighting against the waves,
But maybe they’re right—maybe
My compass has me lost, no land in sight,
Maybe I’ll let the ocean guide me tonight.
[Pre-Chorus]
Hands on the wheel, but they don't feel like mine,
Salt in my lungs and the stars out of line.
My compass is spinning, it’s all black sky,
Maybe I’ll let the current choose how I die
[Chorus]
I left my heart back in Boston,
But I can’t go back.
Brace for impact—
No map, no turning back.
I left my heart back in Boston,
And if I go under,
We all go under.
So just brace for impact.
[Verse 2]
Every wave feels like nails on my skin,
I can feel the void creeping in.
I'm fighting the dark, but it's taking its toll.
This weight on my shoulders could swallow me whole,
But if I give in, it devours us all.
I’m caught in the undertow, eyes closed tight,
Letting the water swallow the light.
[Pre-Chorus]
Hands on the wheel, but they don't feel like mine,
Salt in my lungs and the stars out of line.
My compass is spinning, it’s all black sky,
Maybe I’ll let the current choose how I die
[Chorus]
I left my heart back in Boston,
But I can’t go back.
Brace for impact—
No map, no turning back.
I left my heart back in Boston,
And if I go under,
We all go under.
So just brace for impact.
[Bridge – Screamed/Layered Vocals]
Tear the wheel from my hands,
Pride be damned.
the stars won’t align,
But I still hold the line.
Sink or swim, this is where we decide—
Sink or swim, this is where we collide.
[Pre-Chorus]
Hands on the wheel, but they don't feel like mine,
Salt in my lungs and the stars out of line.
My compass is spinning, it’s all black sky,
Maybe I’ll let the current choose how I die
[Chorus – Final, with extra harmonies/screams]
I left my heart back in Boston,
But I can’t go back.
Brace for impact—
No map, no turning back.
I left my heart back in Boston,
And if I go under,
We all go under.
So just brace for impact.
[Outro]
I left my heart back in Boston,
I left my heart back in Boston,
I left my heart back in Boston. (Back in Boston)
