Letra

My name is Donald Crowhurst

I am alive and well

I lost radio signal in pacific swells

I’ve seen 30 foot waves, a blue whale

I saw the end of the world open up its sails

Got lost in the summer of ’69

I led you all to believe that I was doing fine

This isn’t the way I wanted it to end

I went to see the globe in gold and vivid red

What have I got myself into?

Why did it turn out this way?

I hitched my bets on something bigger to climb

The Everest of waves

I knew exactly what I wanted to find

And I fear I’ve been deceived

It wasn’t in the plan to lie to you all

But become the first king of the sea

My name is Donald Crowhurst

I am alive and well

I lost radio signal in pacific swells

I’ve seen 30 foot waves, a blue whale

I saw the end of the world open up its sails

Got lost in the summer of ’69

I led you all to believe that I was doing fine

This isn’t the way I wanted it to end

I went to see the globe in gold and vivid red

I might have lost count

But 243 days have felt

And I’ve been aimlessly drifting apart

From where should I be and where did I start

And why did this end and how is this real

And why did is this happening to me

I didn’t get an RSVP

When I crowned myself the first king of the sea

My name is Donald Crowhurst

This might be it

I never even left the Atlantic

I’ve been lying for months

I’ve been struggling to cope

I saw the end of the world, and I think I broke

I got lost in the summer of ’69

I led you all to believe that I was doing fine

This isn’t the way I wanted it to end

I went to see the globe in gold and vivid reds

I went to see the globe in gold and vivid reds
