Tough my sails have long been torn
I'm still trying to make waves
But as of late I feel that my soul has been spread too thin
Nevertheless, headlong into the fray there's still a war to win
In defiance and pride I stand as an unmovable isle
As nature spews forth its darkest bile
These shores naught but bones bleached marble white
A testament of mother nature's ungodly might
Most intricate knot of schemes and lies I still have to uncoil
Before I bestow this tired old bones to the blackest soil
Be cautious of men that have the power
To cause grave misery
They're already breathing down our necks
Each one of them sworn to deviltry
And mind you kind Sirs these are troubling times
The zenith of morale is so oddly low these days
That even dwarfs cast long shadows
But what an opportunity to witness mankind in its death throes
So if I had only one song to make the world know that I'm here now
And If I wanted to make even the gods weep
These are the lines I would sing with all my heart
As I bestow this wretched body to the deepest deep
Beware of the beast that calls itself man
A faint glint of a fang reveals the smile
The fancy attire might conceal the hide
But not their true faces grey with guile
I'm still trying to make waves
But as of late I feel that my soul has been spread too thin
Nevertheless, headlong into the fray there's still a war to win
In defiance and pride I stand as an unmovable isle
As nature spews forth its darkest bile
These shores naught but bones bleached marble white
A testament of mother nature's ungodly might
Most intricate knot of schemes and lies I still have to uncoil
Before I bestow this tired old bones to the blackest soil
Be cautious of men that have the power
To cause grave misery
They're already breathing down our necks
Each one of them sworn to deviltry
And mind you kind Sirs these are troubling times
The zenith of morale is so oddly low these days
That even dwarfs cast long shadows
But what an opportunity to witness mankind in its death throes
So if I had only one song to make the world know that I'm here now
And If I wanted to make even the gods weep
These are the lines I would sing with all my heart
As I bestow this wretched body to the deepest deep
Beware of the beast that calls itself man
A faint glint of a fang reveals the smile
The fancy attire might conceal the hide
But not their true faces grey with guile
