Chorus My name is Donald Crowhurst, I'm 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 Instrumental verse 1 What have I got myself into? Why'd 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 Chorus My name is Donald Crowhurst, I'm 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 Instrumental verse 2 I might have lost count But two hundred and forty three 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 happening to me? I didn't get an R S V P When I crowned myself the first king of the sea Alternate Chorus 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 Outro
