He commands a ship with no name He sails the perilous seas causing havoc for no reason Forgotten, he will return He shall return, but barely breathing It's just a scar from an errant beer A tooth made to disappear Be prepared for a bloody attack He'll fight the world with a broken back Nines lives are down to three Fearless but fate foreseen You can take your lives and shove em' You can shove em', they don't mean shit to me

I am a selfish bastard and I deserve to die There ain't nothing good about me unless I had to lie I do just what I want to do, I don't care who you tell I am selfish bastard, you all can go to hell I have a wife to marry and all we did was fight She could never see that I was always right She increased my policy for accidental death And plot away the day that I take my final breath The parish comes a knockin' wanting money for the poor I don't even answer, I just leave them at the door I've only got one charity and it belongs to me I am a selfish bastard as anyone can see I always be alone, I will never have a mate Every gal can see inside of me the bitterness and hate The stinginess consumes me, I can't just let it go There ain't nothing here for anyone, I'll always be alone I may not meet your standards for proper decency I'm currently offending your present company I do just what I want to do, I don't care who you tell I am selfish bastard, you all can go to hell I am selfish bastard, you all can go to hell

Light my lantern heart and I'll do all the rest That girl is poison but her poison tastes the best Like a sin, she's willing to commit That girl is cyanide and I can't seem to quit, I can't seem to quit Light my lantern heart deep within my chest That girl is gorgeous, I'm very much impressed Like a sin, she leads me to the dark From the shadows she strikes and leaves her mark Let it burn Burn me to my core Somehow I want more from you Again, my light keeps fading Light my lantern heart and I'll do all the rest That girl is poison but her poison tastes the best The kerosene, it runs right through my veins You're the spark, you set it all ablaze

Take my hand, take my only offer I'm not coming back again I think it's time for me to leave Time to head back home Knocked down, it don't feel right It's just me against the world but it's alright Lift me up poor troubled life Won't you lift me up Poor troubled life Don't hold me down Poor troubled life Don't hold me down Don't hold me down It's been too long, I feel disconnected Empty bottles numb my soul There's still a chance for me to come back around A chance for me to mend my broken life And I can taste all that glory All the love, the love I have around It lifts me up poor troubled life It lifts me up I found it so hard to breathe Gonna throw it all away Without this troubled life Could I live another day
