Cady Groves - Life Of A Pirate lyrics

rate me

It's not easy to be this complicated

Cause I lose my way, I change my mind

And I'm more easily jaded

Or I'll be indecisive and always end up choosing,

The wrong thing

But I guarantee you'll never hear me say

That, "All I want's a home, a family, a porch swing."

CHORUS:

Cause I wanna be a pirate

It's one thing I decided

It's the only thing that could ever intrigue me

There's no start or end in sight

And I guess I'll have to try it

Worse case I'll be swallowed by the deep blue sea

There's no more tryna fight it

The pain I'll leave behind me

The sweet imperfections of a hot mess of the girl

Now I believe in miracles but there's no way that I'll ever fit in

To the modern way of livin', it's just not me

Workin' nine to five

Livin' in complacency

But I gave it my all

I tried--really I swear

For a girl on her own

But after over-analyzing everything there is here

It's time for my ship and and fresh air

CHORUS

And if I know me, like I think I know me

I'll try to bargain with myself

I'll tell myself it's really not that bad

And I'll try to stick it out

A little longer in society never killed no one

But I can tell you, it's a guarantee that I'll

Always run

Away from every problem or severed relationship

Cause that's who I am

I wanna be a pirate cause they get to be

Whoever they want on the deep blue sea

Here I come
