from Ahab - The Divinity Of Oceans (2009)
Masts are broken
Men will break Yards are shattered Bodies shake Bulkheads battered - Planks are burst This ship is cursed - And so are we Where to head for? - Where will salvation lie? What to salvage? - What to leave behind? This must be a collective lurid dream For God's sake, make us awake! We sold our souls to the divinity of oceans, Bestowed our fortune to the demons of depth Thus now we are left stranded, Shipwrecked and collapsed Lost in the liquid desert Thousands of miles off from the main Uncertain obscurity underneath The surface cuts the world atwain A journey to unscrupulousness A trip to leery human mind A passage through ruthlessness of soil A trek towards ferocity A voyage into unknown A leap into the dark All our hopes are anchored to your mercy, Ye, almighty sea! |

Our boat lurches through damnation
Utter madness embraces me Faces drawn my starvation As we dwindle into misery For a ray of hope we pray Yet of ruin we are aware In ports of doom we lay So I yield to my despair I feel the iron surges Break inside my head I feel the boiling maelstroms Tear my mind to shreds Hence I rue This oath I swore As every moment Last for evermore This world is turned upside down By malisons of dire revenge All fleshly means run aground Hovering between life and death All sense fade away Darkness shall overcome! Will you sink to ageless gloom! Will you sigh out your soul! Will you never find a snug berth! |

Feel decay - Pale as clay
And all washed away Blackest days Arcane our way - Gone astray And all washed away - Blackest days Shades of grey - Aeons of dismay - Blackest days Indulgentiam, absolutionem et remissionem Omnium peccatorum uestrorum Tribuat uobis omnipotens... But how could we forgive ourselves? For all we have done Redemption Lost: our lay Through wondrous depths We've walked our way Redemption Lost: our lay No rest for the wretched! No rest for the wicked! |

Death to the living
Long life to the killers, Success to sailor's wives And greasy luck to whalers. Crushed as the moth beneath thy hand We moulder to the dust Our feeble powers can ne'er withstand And all our beauty's lost. This mortal life decays apace How soon the bubble's broke Adam and all his numerous race Are Vanity and Smoke. Death to the living, Long life to the killers, Success to sailor's wives And greasy luck to whalers. |

Neither long or meager lay
Nor a comet on a July's day Would lead my righteous soul astray To cowardice, left hand's way Oil soaked timber, wooden bone Whatever fate - God knows alone I pray for him to watch our trail For I know: to kill we sail So sing, seaman, join my hymn of Blood and oil Sing her out, sing of our return to Rotten soil First Nantucket sleigh ride, see! Will be a kingly gift to me O! That is where I long to be Deep in the heart of the sea |
