An open ocean An endless sea Waves a mirror to world beneath What lies below What lies in the deep When the red moon rises Crimson tides cover this sea Tides of death crash on this shore The black ship ascends Rising from the deep to curse the world of man (Raise the black flag) (Feel the curse of skull and bones) (Become a pirate live the life of sin) (As the crimson tides rise) (Fear the dark deep depths of despair) (Instrumental) The black ship comes An impenetrable fortress A hundred cannons strong The winds carry her hulk A legend of old In old ghost stories told Returned to claim her lost treasure hoard She haunts the seven seas Claiming the souls who stand and fight Until she takes back the lost gold The seas shiver Skull and bones quiver Cursed to wander the seas forever A ship that never sleeps A haunting nightmare A curse with no end (Instrumental) She comes to claim us all (Raise the black flag) (Feel the curse of skull and bones) (Become a pirate live the life of sin) (As the crimson tides rise) (Fear the dark deep depths of despair) (A trail of destruction left) (The seas run red in her wake) (The black flag still flies) (The cursed ship takes and takes) (None who cross her survive the battle) (Instrumental) She comes now under the fog Silent but deadly We carry her lost gold We carry her lost plunder Cries of the damned we hear Under the torment of our own fear Pirates cursed forever Come to take out our ship (Pirates of the seas we shall fall never) (Raise the black flag) (Feel the curse of skull and bones) (Become a pirate live the life of sin) (As the crimson tides rise) (Fear the dark deep depths of despair) (Instrumental) Prepare for battle!!!!!! Forget rum Forget treasure Raise the black flag Carry the heart of a pirate (Instrumental) Face your fear Face the dark ship For tortuga For victory!!!! FIRE!!!!!!!!!!! (Outro)
