Captain Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Unable to heal
A reminder of our tragedy
Lost at sea and loneliness
Since you're gone
Nothing feels the same
There's no way I can keep you here
But I have loved you so sincere
I wish I could take back the words I said
The words I said
I hope on day I'll look back
And remember the smile on her face
The smile that hid away her pain so noone would notice
And I won't be angry at myself
Only smiling on my own in memory of the times we shared
I memory of you
Not trying to justify the things that I've done to you
Not trying to justify that I was digging your gave
And I keep promising myself I tried
That I did my best
But on dark days I hear the ghost of you
Fucking screaming in my ear
'Cause I know it's lied
There's no way I can keep you here
But I have loved you so sincere
The things I've done leaving you grasping for air
I wish I could take back the words I said
The words I said
The words I said
"The Sea" by Captain is a poignant song about regret and the aftermath of a failed relationship. The singer is grappling with a deep emotional pain that has been left by the words they said to their ex-partner. Despite the fact that they are aware there is no possible way to keep their ex-lover with them, they still yearn to recapture the love they once shared with them. The lyrics speak of the singer's sincere love for their former partner and their desire to take back the harsh words they spoke.
The lyrics also delve into the darker side of the relationship, where the singers admit that they were responsible for hurting their partner. They are trying to justify their actions by saying that they were doing their best, but the memory of their ex-lover haunts them. The song also touches on the idea of a façade, where even if someone is smiling, it doesn't mean that they are okay. The smile can act as a barrier to hide the deep pain that someone is experiencing.
Overall, "The Sea" is a beautifully written and emotionally charged song that delves into the complexities of relationships, human frailty, and regret.
