Have decided to venture to open sea
Reckless and unbridled were the ghosts
Reckless and unbridled were the ghosts
Which operated my ill-will
So strong in bold stupidity
I mingled in waters too deep for my feet to grasp
So strong in bold stupidity
I mingled in waters too deep for my feet to grasp
Yet steady was my plunge into the abyss
Well aware of the frailty of my lungs
And the omniscious darkness from below
Eager to claim such tenacious volition
Willingly to become an unasked guest
In inhospitable latitudes
Well aware of the frailty of my lungs
And the omniscious darkness from below
Eager to claim such tenacious volition
Willingly to become an unasked guest
In inhospitable latitudes
Were I, in an impulsive act of madness
Willing to offer my mortal soul to the nymphs of the sea?
Aye! Wouldn't dare in vain attempt to circumnavigate the truth
Willing to offer my mortal soul to the nymphs of the sea?
Aye! Wouldn't dare in vain attempt to circumnavigate the truth
For the dread certainty of damnation
But in the same awe I solemnly vow
T'was not my design to let
But in the same awe I solemnly vow
T'was not my design to let
My hopeless body to be devoured
By the wrecks of my ship
Now lying in my name at the depths unknown
Driven by blind conviction
I was oblivious to the drunkenness of my ship
Creaking and hissing as the waves furiously waged against the hull
I did defied the old ones by having set course to such impious place
But so did the deities of the sky had a quarrel with me
For my impetuous disregard of my soul
They did admonish from above with burning light
Tearing apart the remnants of my drowning salvation
I had to watch chaos to walk freely on my ship
As it was split apart, eaten away by resolute forces
For fear to strike on my heart
Every ounce of bone implode my ribcage to obliteration
But 'twas my well lit eyes, opaque in disbelief
Which translated best the horrific realizations biting my neck
The large thick sails were now a nuisance on fire
Prospects of being burned alive on open sea became very real
For good or bad fortune
I was clumsily thrown aside by angry winds to nearby shore
The same cursed island that lured me in
By the wrecks of my ship
Now lying in my name at the depths unknown
Driven by blind conviction
I was oblivious to the drunkenness of my ship
Creaking and hissing as the waves furiously waged against the hull
I did defied the old ones by having set course to such impious place
But so did the deities of the sky had a quarrel with me
For my impetuous disregard of my soul
They did admonish from above with burning light
Tearing apart the remnants of my drowning salvation
I had to watch chaos to walk freely on my ship
As it was split apart, eaten away by resolute forces
For fear to strike on my heart
Every ounce of bone implode my ribcage to obliteration
But 'twas my well lit eyes, opaque in disbelief
Which translated best the horrific realizations biting my neck
The large thick sails were now a nuisance on fire
Prospects of being burned alive on open sea became very real
For good or bad fortune
I was clumsily thrown aside by angry winds to nearby shore
The same cursed island that lured me in
Whose inhabitants orchestrated my fool's errand
For some insane, foul, unknown purpose
Long before the deterioration of my mind
Forsaken by the gods, little hope was there for me to be found by lesser mortals
Yet at long last, I could search for what I was willing to bargain my sanity away
Forsaken by the gods, little hope was there for me to be found by lesser mortals
Yet at long last, I could search for what I was willing to bargain my sanity away
