Tracks



01. Traitor's Song

There, hear my say, watch me now...
The power of trust has betrayed me again!

And you mortals!
Will perish inFlames!
My wrath was never greater!
You dared to disobey!

He begged, and he begged for mercy, I will never forgive him,
For his terrible sin, he will burn, BURN, forever his
Soul will be cursed for betrayal
And now he's going to meet his doom,
In the depths, below death awaits now...

Crime so evil and ungrateful
I know she wouldn't be unfaithful.
He think that hes so very shady.
Dared to lay his foul two eyes upon my lady!

Seize him up and tie his hands
Chop his balls then feed him lead!

He begged, and he begged for mercy, I will never forgive him,
For his terrible sin, he will burn, BURN, forever his
Soul will be cursed for BETRAYAL
And now he's going to meet his doom,
In the depths, below death awaits

Now i can't even think of her
She worthless to me like this scurvy cur
Her pureness now is castaway
I've had enough and these two wretches now shall pay!

Seize her up and tie her hands
Shoot her dead then cut her head!

She begged, and she begged for mercy, I will never forgive her,
For her terrible sin, she will burn, BURN, forever her
Soul will be cursed for BETRAYAL
And now she's going to meet her doom,
In the depths, below death awaits... now...

02. Just One Drink

Time after time they did it again!
Same trouble, same ship, we're dropping the sail!
We can't go on for this is the end!
Our barrels are empty, dryer than land!
Who is to blame for this outrageous crime?
I'll tell you my mates, how it was done!

Have noticed the crooks, last night there were four,
One monkey, two monsters and some kind of dog!

To talk about monsters was no plan of mine,
They'll trouble your dreams until you will die!

Thieves drank our rum, and smoked on our greens!
We should've been prepared for felony like this!

I pulled out my sword, to stop them i've tried,
Dog forced me to drink they have caught me off guard!

I had just one drink, I'm not even drunk,
Trust me my friends, you know i don't lie, all the time.

I had just one drink, I'm not even drunk,
Trust me my friends, you know i don't lie, all the time!

We ran out of booze, and lost track of time,
Soon it was morning, sun ended the crime!

Was left alive, to tell you this tale,
So you wouldn't pay judgement on my poor soul saint!

They jumped off the ship, in the sea they were lost,
You found me drunk dead, with no remorse!

Coz' it was their fault, and you cannot blame me,
It's not my sin i have had just one drink!

I had just one drink, I'm not even drunk,
Trust me my friends, you know i don't lie, all the time.

I had just one drinj, I'm not even drunk,
Trust me my friends, you know i don't lie, all the time!

03. Outlaw's Farewell

Lights burn low, as I walk alone.
No regrets, as I leave my home.

Destiny, awaits for me, far away
Now I know, just where to go, to find myself
May the winds, ever fill the sails, on my way

Coz' there's no other life, for man like me!

When I sail away tomorrow, you know there's no turning back.
It is time that I raise the black flag, and to be who I was born to be.
Don't despair and don't be sorry, you know I was never no good.
And you will never see me, may the ocean become my tomb.

04. Fair Winds

The time has come
The end is near

Walking towards the gallows
With no fear

Remember the days
Of glory and pain
We're going to die
End of a reign

Our deeds and fame
Our tales
They always will remain

So long my mates
farewell
I'll see you all in hell

Taking their lives and raping their wives,
I say was it really a crime?
Spending their gold on dirty old whores,
Hey it was such a good time!

Our deeds and fame
Our tales
They always will remain

So long my mates
Farewell
I'll see you all in hell

Our deeds and fame
Our tales
They always will remain

Coz we won't have time,
To make amends,
Fair winds to you my friends!

Cutting their throats and making them bleed
I say was it really a crime?
Drinking the rum, glogging the mead
Yarr, it was such a good time!

Our deeds and fame,
Our tales,
They always will remain

So long my mates,
Farewell,
I'll see you all in hell!

Our deeds and fame,
Our tales,
They always will remain

Coz we won't have time,
To make amends,
Fair winds to you my friends!

05. Tales Of The South Seas

They came one summer nightfall.
Calm breeze replaced with
Cold and bitter air.
Thunders from hell above here,
We've heard 'em taunt from
Hundreds miles away.

Far from the north shore
We followed smell of blood.
Fire and broadswords
We'll show you our might!
Shall kill for the glory
Wealth, and epic tales.
To fight for truth an' 'ternal life
Bloodshed must be spread!

Clashes of steel and raw flesh,
Tears, cry, death seen from everywhere.
Sinking ships and floating debris,
Screaming an' fighting till we stand!

You dare to cross this
Sacred line of ours.
Border of south man
Is strongest when we fight!
Shall die for the freedom
Our future will prevail!
To fight for truth an' 'ternal life
Bloodshed must be spread!

Battle lasted for days
And smoke and fire's all that remains.
Lives, some pure, some foul,
Were lost in this rageful conflict of ours.

Now when it's over,
Their spirits roam the sea
In search for truth an' 'ternal life
Restless they shall be!
They've earned their freedom,
Rhe homeland is now safe
What's the point in blood and gore
When now they're simply dead!
