4. Raging Waters (4:32)
Our ship sailed on through the violent burning sea
Not knowing of the danger, waiting in store for me
We wound up all in mayhem; the vessel tossed and turned
The compass that had led us - we watched it slowly burn
We'll never see our homeland: we know it all right then
That fate was on the second hand of borrowed time again
For that evil pathed our way
The men were being thrown from left and right they feel
The water was as hot as Satan's forge from hell
The questions that arose like where the hell are we
I had a good idea we're in the Devil's sea: the triangle
-- The Devil's triangle!
See what's become of your life left to live
No hope from this land of trust; hell's winds scream sacrilege
Death from above - the great white closes in
The corpses afloat, all shattered in rage
No hope for our piece of mind - Satan's vessels come closer and closer
He holds the seas fate in his hand
Violence, terror, raging waters
Dying has scare us, nowhere to go
Darkness prevails, no one to save us
Every one man for himself!
The red gem of Hades is shining too hot
Satan's power becomes strong
His armies have killed so many before us
A sacrifice must be done
The door of the chosen has opened for us
What sanctuary will we see?
See him panic, crying in lust
Screaming: "he'll get me!"
Violence, terror, raging waters
Dying has scare us, nowhere to go
Darkness prevails, no one to save us
Every one man for himself!
Our ship sailed on through the violent burning sea
Not knowing of the danger, waiting in store for me
We wound up all in mayhem; the vessel tossed and turned
The compass that had led us - we watched it slowly burn
We'll never see our homeland: we know it all right then
That fate was on the second hand of borrowed time again
For that evil pathed our way
Every one man for himself!
Not knowing of the danger, waiting in store for me
We wound up all in mayhem; the vessel tossed and turned
The compass that had led us - we watched it slowly burn
We'll never see our homeland: we know it all right then
That fate was on the second hand of borrowed time again
For that evil pathed our way
The men were being thrown from left and right they feel
The water was as hot as Satan's forge from hell
The questions that arose like where the hell are we
I had a good idea we're in the Devil's sea: the triangle
-- The Devil's triangle!
See what's become of your life left to live
No hope from this land of trust; hell's winds scream sacrilege
Death from above - the great white closes in
The corpses afloat, all shattered in rage
No hope for our piece of mind - Satan's vessels come closer and closer
He holds the seas fate in his hand
Violence, terror, raging waters
Dying has scare us, nowhere to go
Darkness prevails, no one to save us
Every one man for himself!
The red gem of Hades is shining too hot
Satan's power becomes strong
His armies have killed so many before us
A sacrifice must be done
The door of the chosen has opened for us

Screaming: "he'll get me!"
Violence, terror, raging waters

For that evil pathed our way
Every one man for himself!
