HellCatNZ - No Flag, No King (DarthLobster's Remix)

STUDIO

[Intro - Oceanic Ambience] [Verse 1] I saw her in the harbor, black sails against the moon Gold in her belly, death in her wake My crew said "turn away, Captain, that one's marked for ruin" But I planted my flag for fortune's sake Took her wheel at midnight Cut the anchor, stole the tide Now I'm bound to her bones forever The wrong ship was my pride [Chorus] Wrong ship, wrong stars, wrong heading home Wrong ship, these waters claim their own I'm a shadow on the deck where I planted my standard The wrong ship, and I'll sail her alone [Verse 2] Crew tried to warn me, said her previous captain drowned Mutiny or madness, they never could tell But I saw treasure maps and Spanish gold in every sound Now I see the truth—this ship is hell The wheel won't turn to port The compass spins and lies Every sunrise finds me further From the land, from the light, from life [Chorus] Wrong ship, wrong stars, wrong heading home Wrong ship, these waters claim their own I'm a shadow on the deck where I planted my standard The wrong ship, and I'll sail her alone [Bridge - Breakdown] I hear new crews boarding every moon Young captains drunk on glory Making the same choice The ocean keeps the story [Whispered backing vocals: "Turn away... turn away... turn away..."] But ambition is a current Stronger than the gale And every captain thinks he'll be The one who'll live to tell the tale [Final Chorus] Wrong ship, wrong stars, wrong heading home Wrong ship, these waters claim their own I'm a shadow on the deck where I planted my standard The wrong ship, and I'll sail her alone Wrong ship, wrong grave, wrong glory found Wrong ship, I'll never make ground Planted my flag on a vessel of hunger The wrong ship pulled me under The wrong ship pulled me under [Outro] [Whispered] Turn away... [End]
