LETRA
Death Before The Mast
First light reflects off the ocean,
All crew now set into motion.
Another day like many before it,
Hard life, no way to ignore it.
Behold! A cry from the crow's nest,
A ship appears from the south west.
The years below deck that bored me,
All lead to what lies before me.
Hear the terror - Fires burn and cannons sound.
Fate awaits me - As the vessels circle round.
See the slaughter - Cutlass swings and pistols fire.
Feel the anger - Raging through my body tires.
One last battle - In this sailor's lonely war.
Come to meet this - Destiny I can't ignore.
I hold my breath - Close my eyes and hang on for,
Death before the mast...
Too late to lay low or outrun,
Up close we're outmanned and outgunned.
Prepare to rush forth, unleash hell,
Cross swords in one final farewell.
Hulls crash, our vessel is boarded,
No mercy or tact is afforded.
But now the King's men draw closer,
Seems like it may all be over.
Hear the terror - Fires burn and cannons sound.
Fate awaits me - As the vessels circle round.
See the slaughter - Cutlass swings and pistols fire.
Feel the anger - Raging through my body tires.
One last battle - In this sailor's lonely war.
Come to meet this - Destiny I can't ignore.
I hold my breath - Close my eyes and hang on for,
Death before the mast.

Hear the terror - Fires burn and cannons sound.

See the slaughter - Cutlass swings and pistols fire.
Feel the anger - Raging through my body tires.
One last battle - In this sailor's lonely war.
Come to meet this - Destiny I can't ignore.
I hold my breath - Close my eyes and hang on for,
Death before the mast.
