[Intro]

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 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 reds

What have I got myself into? Why did it turn 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 sails

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 might've lost count, but 243 days, I've 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 happenin' to me?

I didn't get your 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 lyin' 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
