Analysis of Pirate
My dad was born by the ocean.
Some times I pretend he’s a pirate.
Always gone, drunk and looking for treasures that don’t exist.
I guess the rough waters made him that way.
So when I hear the ocean calling my name, I go follow my dad.
We catch up on all the years that have passed us by, right there on his sunken ship.
