The Day We Fell

(앨범: Welcome To The World - 2016)

Mainsail!
Hoist the mainsail you devils!
Cast off!
Cast off into the open sea!
Pray the lord sails with us
Pray the wind stays behind us

I'm looking for a few good men
If your stomach is strong and your wits are keen
I'm hunting for the big white devil
I'd kill him with my own bare hands
I'd tear his heart out at the bottom of the sea
Spill the blood of the great white devil

Burn my eyes out I can't see what he's doing
The shame that I'm feeling, the day we fell
Clear my mind of all the thoughts that I'm thinking
What were we doing? I'll say farewell, raising hell

Keep your eyes overboard boys
There's gold on the mast for the first who sees
The hide of the deep sea devil
They'll say the ocean was a blood bath
I'll take the souls that he took from me
Taste the spear of ahab you devil!

Burn my eyes out I can't see what he's doing
The shame that I'm feeling, the day we fell
Clear my mind of all the thoughts that I'm thinking
What were we doing? I'll say farewell, raising hell

Burn my eyes out I can't see what he's doing
The shame that I'm feeling, the day we fell
Clear my mind of all the thoughts that I'm thinking
What were we doing? I'll say farewell, raising hell

[Ahab fights the whale]

"He piled upon the whale's white hump
The sum of all the general rage and hate
Felt by his whole race from Adam down
And then, as if his chest had been a mortar
He burst his hot heart's shell upon it!
Towards thee I roll
Thou all-destroying but conquering whale
To the last I grapple with thee
From hell's heart I stab at thee
For hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee!
A solemn white surf beat against it's steep sides
Then all collapsed and the great shroud of the sea
Rolled on as it rolled five thousand years ago
Melville compares the ship to Satan
Who would not sink to hell until she had dragged a
Living part of heaven along with her"
