Electron - Adam Barnes

My name is Donald Crowhurst

I’m alive and well

I lost radio signal in Pacific swells

I’ve seen thirty foot waves, a blue whale

I saw the end of the world open up its cells

Got lost in the summer of 69

I let 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 vivid reds

What have I got myself into

Why did it turn it out this way

I hedged 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’m alive and well

I lost radio signal in Pacific swells

I’ve seen thirty foot waves, a blue whale

I saw the end of the world open up its cells

I got lost in the summer of 69

I let 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 might have lost count

But two hundred and fourtythree days have found

That I’ve been aimlessly drifting apart

From where should I be and where did I start

And why did this end, how is this real

Why is this happening to me

I didn’t get you roar as weepy

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 let 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
