Encapsulated on this vessel, perished crew all strewn around me

We've got to ride with the wave, we've got to stand and be brave

Or it's a watery grave (for our hero)

As we ride into the storm our sanity will transform

As two we will be reborn



I was crucified for what I thought I believed

I was sacrificed and made to walk the plank

The rogue waves unify and focus all their power on me

Damage inflicted but freedom won't be restricted



This situation is quite awful

The sharks have smelt this blood

Whilst one chews on the last morsel

I ponder time before the great flood

We used to dance to the beat

But now it's all at the bottom of the ocean forgotten 

Alike the lifeboat and transom 

(We will go down when she goes down)



I was crucified for what I thought I believed

I was sacrificed and made to walk the plank

The rogue waves unify and focus all their power on me

Damage inflicted but freedom won't be restricted



The water is freezing, the breeze is so raw

And I cannot feel my pulse, I cannot see the coast (no lighthouse to see)

I wish for the morning but I won't survive the night

Her ghost is so warm and bright but she's home at land (sing a song for me)

My darling I pray that this bottle will find you well

It holds all the words in my heart

I curse the day that we had to part, to part



Sipping on sea water

Hallucinations torture me (a myriad of dreams)

The horizon offers nothing

We will go down when she goes down

When she goes down



My lungs they flood, the Devil takes my hand

No guiding light, just memories of home and golden sand

My dreams shatter, as I head for a new land

I close my eyes and pressure of the ocean crushes my heart



The water is freezing, the breeze is so raw

And I cannot feel my pulse, I cannot see the coast (no lighthouse to see)

I wish for the morning but I won't survive the night

Her ghost is so warm and bright but she's home at land (sing a song for me)

My darling I pray that this bottle will find you well

It holds all the words in my heart

I curse the day that we had to part, to part
