I set upon the sea
To search for phantom sails from tales my mum told me
A ghostly galleon filled with gold, she sails alone
No crew nor captains guiding and can tame the one the sailors call the shadow
Sun and horizon met
I weighed the anchor,
hoisted sails, my course was set
My cutthroat crew conspiring with the stars,
our guide They point the way through perils fraught and lead us to the one they call the Shadow
None can tame the one the sailors call the Shadow
Lean left,
hard right
Hold tightly to her helm,
she'll try to drown you just for spite
Heave ho,
till first to light
She'll give a fight to all who try to claim the Shadow
None can tame the one the sailors call the Shadow
A mighty tempest grew,
the band she cried turned back,
but our resolve was true
We pointed, bowed our head and shouted, we'll break through
The jaws of hell can't hold us back,
there's nothing that can keep us from the shadow
The winds blew stronger still,
the ocean raged against us,
tried to break our will
The sirens in the water thirsty for the kill
Our vessel reel in to and fro to bear us to the one they call the Shadow
None can keep us from the one they call the Shadow
Lean left,
hard right
Hold tightly to her helm,
she'll try to drown you just for spite
Keep hold till first light
She'll give a fight to all who try to claim the Shadow
None can tame the one the sailors call the Shadow
As thunder split the sky,
the lightning drew a shape beyond the tempest's eye
A chill ran through me spine as legend came alive
Abast! I cried, all hands, as we prepared to take the one they call the shadow
ALL HANDS!
As
we approached her shell,
the skies went silent,
seas went calm as if by spell.
No signs of fight or flight were in her.
All was well,
until I tried to take her helm.
Her rigging came alive,
she hung my crew before me eyes.
She stole my sight and cursed me,
Captain of the Shadow
She took my eyes and cursed me,
Captain of the Shadow
Lead and left,
heart and right Steer clear of her,
I fear she'll eat your
soul She'll take your life,
keep hold,
till first
light She'll claim the souls of those who try to
tame the Shadow None can tame the one the sailors call the
Shadow None can tame the one the sailors call the Shadow
