[Verse 1 - Opening] "We set our sails for a legend untold, For a cove of bright diamonds and mountains of gold. Our maps were all lies, but our greed was a creed, We laughed at the old prayers forgotten in need. We swore on our souls we'd come back wealthy men, To the arms of our lovers, again and again." [Chorus 1 - Rave Anthemy] "But the waves have no mercy, the waves have no sleep, They gather the promises the drowned cannot keep. Our gold is the rust, and our jewels are the gloom, And our souls are the roots of this coral-made tomb..." "Waves… cold and deep…" "Hold sailors' promises the drowned cannot keep." [Pirate Power Metal Rap / Speed Interlude] We ain't dead! We just got tired! We are all liars! We are all cursed! The serpent led us, for gold that was worst! The wine's run dry, but the RUM'S still flowing! Who gives a damn 'bout the souls that are burning? Slash up the meat! And shatter the glass! 'Cause our only gold is a hull that has passed! We don't need the heaven! We don't need the ground! Our home is the cold, salty tomb all around! He's right! His word is the law! We're here in the palace where time stands still! Death cannot take us, the sea never will! THE CHESTS ARE ALL HOLLOW! (Aaargh!) OUR TREASURE'S DOWN BELOW! (Yarrr!) WE'LL NEVER LET IT GO! (Heave ho!) "Waves… cold and deep…" "Hold sailors' promises the drowned cannot keep." [Verse 2 - Opening] "The storm took our rigging, the rocks took our hull, Now the abyss sings to us, a watery lull. The crabs write our names in the sand of the floor, In a script that the living will never explore. We dance with the eels in a slow, graceful spin, And welcome new shipwrecks that drift slowly in." [Chorus 2 - Rave Anthemy] "For the waves have no memory, the waves have no past, They know that all voyages ultimately can't last. They collect every oath whispered into the gale, And file them away in a salt-water jail..." "Waves… cold and deep…" "Hold sailors' promises the drowned cannot keep. The crabs write our names in the sand of the floor, In a script that the living will never explore. We dance with the eels in a slow, graceful spin, And welcome new shipwrecks that drift slowly in." [Final Refrain: Full Rave Climax] FOR THE WAVES HAVE NO HEARING, THE WAVES HAVE NO SOUL, THEY HAVE ONE SINGLE PURPOSE: TO CONSUME AND CONTROL! SO SWEAR YOUR FALSE VOWS TO THE SKY AND THE FOAM! AND WE'LL CARVE YOU A PLACE IN OUR SALT-WATER HOME! Waves… cold and deep… YOUR SAILOR'S PROMISE THE DROWNED SHALL NOT KEEP!
