No flapping wings, no roaring engine
No cluck, no crow, no crawling human
No beating heart, no squeaking cart
No truck, no boat, no bloating presence
Only silence
Only the ocean's breath
I feel a light breeze in this warm nest
Slowly rocking me to sleep
I feel at peace

Dead corrals and scrap metal pave this domain
Expendable, disposable, we play with the waves
Not even man can, not even man can reach us
Above us shadows brawl, fellow drifters come join the parade
Waltz, play, we've conquered this placе
Not even man can
Not evеn man can
I see a face

Muffled screams, frantic limbs
Hands clawing for the shore
Who are these strange beings wearing human skin?
Are these the faces of mighty men?
Bathing creeps, abandoned by machines
Struggling as the sirens call
Not so mighty after all, man tripped
Off his pedestal
I see a face
Muffled screams, frantic limbs
Man is falling, calling for the Lord
Their god stays deaf for death can't hear
The lost souls of mighty men
Chasing dreams, abandoned by mankind
Struggling as the sirens call
Looking for a place in this world
They die under the eyes of the citadel
Silence falls, they float with us
Just as weak, helpless, expendable

We're under attack
Snakes, dragons, whales, titans
We're under attack
Released the fucking kraken
They've busted the brazen gates, hunting us down
Chewing their way through flesh and plastic
The ocean dyes red through this fucked up mitosis
Floating between Scylla and Charybdis, feeling safe
We fled the city to be butchered in the bay
Hey motherfucker, do I look like I'm a fucking shrimp?

Comrades riven in agony, flailing
Wailing down at me
Shrieking my name for the last fucking time
Gasping out their lives
As the beast dives deep down in the abyss
I hear them screaming
Lost in this mortal struggle

Muffled screams, frantic limbs
Hands clawing for the shore
What are these strange things shredded in the sea?
Are we just remains of mighty brands?
Bathing creeps, orphans of humanity
Struggling as the sirens call
Not so mighty after all, I've tripped
Off the pedestal
Is this my fate?
Muffled screams, frantic limbs
Hands clawing for the shore
Their god stays deaf for death can't hear
The lost souls of mighty men
Chasing dreams, abandoned by mankind
Struggling as the sirens call
Looking for a place in this world
They die under the eyes of the citadel
