Fire, fore and aft

Man the boats and put to the sea

Crashing yardarms, cries of pain

A will to live, a chance to flee Panic on the boats to save

Stricken hands the first on board

Leading to eternal grave

Dragging down what they could hoard Thirty days and night

Have I seen the brink of death

Troubled seas my only friend

Drag me down gasping for breath Cursing eternal black

Bloodied by the dogs of war

Memories come clawing back

Treasured friends their sight no more Eternal cruise, I feel the fires of madness

Burning holes into my wounds

This hell on earth, I feel the power of sadness

No way out I'm marooned Lonely this hell on earth

Demons screaming in my mind

Wading through debris of life

A thousand souls their graves to find Flotsam with death on board

Bodies ripped until the bone

Nothing but the sounds of time

No sign of life, am I alone? Eternal cruise, I feel the fires of madness

Burning holes into my wounds

This hell on earth, I feel the power of sadness

No way out, I'm marooned Eternal curse, could I really be stranded

Start to count one thousand moons

This hell on earth, to me the dogs have handed

No way out, I'm marooned
