[Verse 1] Salt in my teeth Harbor’s all teeth too Ropes slap masts Hulls grind stone Barrels roll Someone shouts “Who’s crew?” Carts jammed in mud Fish guts Gold dust Smoke A knife game spills red on the dock Old bells ring while gulls choke [Chorus] Raise it high The black‑torn banner Kraken in the harbor Call our name Drink it down The rust‑burnt amber Laugh in the thunder Dance in the flame Hey! Hey! Kraken in the harbor Call our name [Verse 2] Creak of the boards Floor shakes with a song Tankards slam time on the tables We roar the right words wrong Rum on my breath Storm in my veins Bootheels pound like broadside fire Coins and curses rain [Chorus] [Bridge] [whispered vocals] Hear it… under the keel A low moan Long and real [full voice] Lanterns swing wide Chains rattle in fear Tentacles in the tide draw near [Chorus]
