about

Curse this foolish dream, making my head unsound
And my mind is like a ship
A ship that's going down
And the catpain has just left
Taking with him the last life vest on board

Curse this foolish dream, it just won't let me go
I'm held in it's thrall,
It won't give me, won't give me back my own throne
And the tin crown I used to wear
rolls away, falls away down the stair

Curse this foolish dream, should I follow it right to hell?
But my body is like a tree,
A tree that's lain on the ground
And the captain will not rest
Till he's taken us all down
With his axe

Curse foolish dream, making my head unsound
We set out with hope in our hearts
And we hope our hearts will find a way
For the reasons cannot be found,
Within the fathoms of what drives this ship
Aground.
