O Deceiver/Sink into the Sea Lyrics

O, Deceiver, was it worth it?
Can you still sleep the way I used to?
And O, brother, my blood was so thick
Can you still look into my daughter's eyes?
And could you sink into the sea...
Forever?

O, insides, you're just not working
You feel like pins and needles
At least that's what I'm used to
And O, captain, who is your captain
And who do you cry to, and is it okay to cry?
And could you sink into the sea...
Forever?

Just watch me sink into the sea...
Forever

They've only played this song live, so I don't know if there is an official title for this yet or not. I just gave it one that would make it easy to find if people were looking for it. If anyone has an official title, let me know.

Obviously these aren't official lyrics either. There are a couple I'm not 100% sure about, but I listened to a recording of this song from their August 1, 2007 show at the Varsity Theater in Minneapolis, and this is the best I could come up with. I think it's pretty close.

It turns out Andy has a solo project called Right Away, Great Captain!, and this is the first track off his record The Bitter End, with a couple slight lyric changes. The song is called Oh, Deceiver.
