by the sea so bluey-green a girl is in the gallows born within a pirate team condemned to the gallows she talked amongst the ones at watch that girl in the gallows pleaded her case while they ate lunch her perch within the gallows at every step the headsman took at every step once more she’d look at every step the dust it shook while she stood before the gallows [Instrumental] on the wood so rough and shorn a girl is in the gallows around her neck the rope is worn as she becomes the gallows she draws a breath touches the rope the wrap is drawn so tightly an innocent still holding hope within the blackest gallows at every step the headsman took at every step once more she’d look at every step the dust it shook while she stood before the gallows [Instrumental] and as the body drops below the girl hangs from the gallows the audience they clap and cheer as she falls below the gallows her neck held strong, the deed is done as gasping fills the gallows the rope is not as strong as she as snapping fills the gallows she wastes no time and leaves behind the rope that bound her to death’s kind and runs away to her ship’s side amazement fills the gallows [Instrumental]
