she said this would be a disaster
sails tear waves tore
though the hull faster
than we could reach the shore
cast away of all rapture
body trembling and overwhelmed
nothing left to hold onto
lack of faith no god could help
everything sank into
the ancient mariner's abyss
down at the bottom
where mermaids weep
no air in my lungs
the skies watch me sinking
not floating back up
with life in me
violent winds scatter
my life's work
hope dwindles lower
every second
the sea
she swallowed me whole
the waves crash upon
my sea-torn flesh
red in the water
sleeping with fish
as she waits on the shore
anxiously
months turn to years
years grew her tired
still she waits
patiently
never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
