6. Orpheus (8:14)
Far from the battlefield
Carrying troop and shield
Straight ahead, she steers
Rugged coastline appears
Possessed outdated map
Embedded nose into sand trap
Engines seized, force of waves
(exposing port side, timber bends and caves)
Sea pounded murderously
Squadron running aimlessly
Hanging from the mast
Weary, death comes fast
[Chorus:]
Bodies scattered throughout
Young as twelve cry out
Gasping for air, thrashing about
In vain they cry and shout
Bodies scattered throughout
Young as twelve cry out
Gasping for air, thrashing about
In vain they cry and shout
Far From the battlefield
Carrying troop and shield
Straight ahead, she steers
Sea pounded murderously
Squadron running aimlessly
Hanging from the mast
Weary, death comes fast
[Chorus]
Sea as dense as night,
Waves crash force and might
Sailors swept away
Men slowly lose the fight
Floating lifeless, eyes of grey
Where gods no longer reign
Eyes of grey
Carrying troop and shield
Straight ahead, she steers
Rugged coastline appears
Possessed outdated map
Embedded nose into sand trap
Engines seized, force of waves
(exposing port side, timber bends and caves)
Sea pounded murderously
Squadron running aimlessly
Hanging from the mast
Weary, death comes fast
[Chorus:]
Bodies scattered throughout
Young as twelve cry out
Gasping for air, thrashing about
In vain they cry and shout
Bodies scattered throughout
Young as twelve cry out
Gasping for air, thrashing about
In vain they cry and shout
Far From the battlefield
Carrying troop and shield
Straight ahead, she steers
Sea pounded murderously
Squadron running aimlessly
Hanging from the mast
Weary, death comes fast
[Chorus]
Sea as dense as night,
Waves crash force and might
Sailors swept away
Men slowly lose the fight
Floating lifeless, eyes of grey
Where gods no longer reign
Eyes of grey
