50 Souls - V6

[Verse 1] Black water took the mast Before the dawn broke clean Boots slid on painted planks And the deck went split and mean Ropes bit through frozen hands Names flew out in the spray I saw the lantern spin Then the sea took them away The captain stared ahead At a seam of broken foam No one said the thing That was hanging over home [Pre-Chorus] The deck went slick and black The ropes began to slide We heard that old deep calling From the other side [Chorus] Fifty souls lost to the deep Fifty men won't be going home Fifty souls lost to the deep And the sea took back its own Fifty souls lost to the deep (Fifty souls lost) Fifty men won't be going home (Won't be going home) [Verse 2] We threw the lamps and lines We cursed the frozen spray But the dark kept pulling hard Like it knew our names that day Boot to boot we braced Shoulder tight to shoulder bone Then the bow cut down and down And the water made a throne [Pre-Chorus] The bell rang thin and wild The mast began to bend We looked at one another Like it was the end [Chorus] Fifty souls lost to the deep Fifty men won't be going home Fifty souls lost to the deep And the sea took back its own Fifty souls lost to the deep (Fifty souls lost) Fifty men won't be going home (Won't be going home) [Bridge] If you hear that whistle cry Out past the breaker line Save a place in the dry For the names we leave behind [Final Chorus] Fifty souls lost to the deep Fifty men won't be going home Fifty souls lost to the deep And the sea took back its own Fifty souls lost to the deep (Fifty souls lost) Fifty men won't be going home (Won't be going home)
