[Intro] My mind isn't a room It's not a house with numbered doors It's a floating flotilla Scattered across an endless current Boats and barges Drifting without coordinates Each one carrying pieces of me [Verse 1] One boat carries video games Another carries every song I love One is stacked with useless trivia Another has memories I'm proud of They're all connected But none of them are anchored They drift apart Then crash together Then disappear behind the weather I don't have shelves I have vessels I don't organize I retrieve And anything I actually need Can become cargo Something real gets placed on deck I look away for a second And it's overboard My mind doesn't delete things It loses them to the current [Chorus] All hands on deck Something important's in the water All hands on deck Someone tell me what I forgot Video games stay afloat Every useless detail stays aboard But something real goes overboard And I don't even see it hit the water All hands on deck Search the current Check the wake Find whatever part of me Just disappeared beneath the waves [Verse 2] There's a boat for every interest Every obsession gets a vessel I can remember mechanics Characters Maps Lore Dialogue Every microscopic detail But ask me something consequential And suddenly there's an empty horizon My real name can go overboard Not the name on paper The one that feels like mine The one that proves I'm still myself The one I should know automatically Sometimes I have to reach for it Like it's drifting somewhere downstream And then it becomes an emergency [Bridge] ALL HANDS ON DECK Drop the anchors Turn the engines Search every vessel Someone lost the name Where is it? Check the current Check the cargo Check every boat Because somehow My own name Can become something I have to recover And when I finally find it There's this strange relief Like I didn't remember something I rescued it [Chorus] All hands on deck Something important's in the water All hands on deck Someone tell me what I forgot Video games stay afloat Every useless detail stays aboard But something real goes overboard And I don't even see it hit the water All hands on deck Search the current Check the wake Find whatever part of me Just disappeared beneath the waves [Verse 3] Maybe that's the best description Of what's happening inside me Not an empty mind Too many vessels Too much cargo Too many currents Too many destinations Too little certainty About what survives the journey I can have something in my hands And somehow lose it Without moving I can know exactly who I am Then watch that knowledge Drift beyond my reach And the worst part is I know it's still somewhere Just not where I can see it [Final Chorus] All hands on deck My mind is sounding alarms Something real is sinking Somewhere between these scattered parts Video games stay afloat The imaginary survives the storm But reality keeps slipping Through the gaps between the boats All hands on deck Don't let it disappear If you see my name in the current Throw a rope Pull it here Because sometimes Even I need a rescue crew To remind me Who I am [Outro] My mind isn't a room It's an ocean A flotilla of everything I love And sometimes I'm just the captain Trying to keep myself aboard
