lyrics

Tell me now what could it be
That calls us so incessantly
Onwards to a haunted shore
Though we don’t know what lies in store
Do we sail to claim a prize
Or blindly go to our demise
If you recall can you tell me
Why we sail this starless sea

There upon the hill lies a fearsome keep
Where something wicked works while the people sleep
No we’re no heroes just the wretches of the town
But we’ll risk everything to bring that ruin down

Woe to all who pass underneath the gate
Beware the wicked vines, the curse of storm and hate
The savage beastmen seem familiar and unknown
And everywhere we face a pestilence that grows

We sail upon a haunted ship to the rhythm of the drums
In search of retribution for what we have become
We drift towards a golden light into a mystery
A ragged band of sailors on the starless sea

Deep below the earth past a trail of gold
Waits a nameless fiend from the days of old
A place where human souls are spent to pay the price
To raise a chaos lord through human sacrifice

We sail upon a haunted ship to the rhythm of the drums
In search of retribution for what we have become
We drift towards a golden light into a mystery
A ragged band of sailors on the starless sea

Corrupted acolytes will reap what they have sown
We’ll sail towards the light and into the unknown

We sail upon a haunted ship to the rhythm of the drums
In search of retribution for what we have become
We drift towards a golden light into a mystery
A ragged band of sailors on the starless sea
