The Sea Wolf Lyrics

The shadow of innocence gone
A childhood lost in the waves
For all time
While pouring over volumes I lay
Like curses that echo the sea
Without rhyme

Fortunes are drowned
Swallowed up by the sea
Shackled in time
Never known, never seen

The battles are brimming below
The gallons of emptiness found
In the waves
A circling vortex of time
One thousand and more men are drowned
In their graves

Echoes of pride
Swallowed up by the sea
Shackled in time
Never lost, never seen
This body is crooked and old
But doubtless I'll live and I'll die
By the sea

I'm wizened and tired and cold
But fire still burns in my mind
You can see

Fortunes are found
Now revealed by degree
Shackled in time
Now I'm lost with the sea
