Many moons have passed And still the ocean a void Mists enshroud us, choking our site Then voices on the wind Turn back! Turn back! Before we're destroyed The sirens their beauty concealing men's fate Men, lash my sinful frame to the mast Lust overwhelms me, this night be our last Falling in Temptation destroys me Mortal sin My weakness defiles me Through my veins Hope is rekindled From this desperate state Glory shall be mine Dashed on the rocks, by the murderous swell My men have been taken, this watery Hell Floating for days, resigned to my fate The sirens have lured me, a fool for their bait I must be losing my mind Will I ever awake? Dragged to the depths, a powerless soul And then, a glimmer of light Awake! Awake! A kingdom unveiled Deep in the sea Such riches such glory, heard only in stories Once a myth, is now before me Falling in Temptation destroys me Mortal sin My weakness defiles me Through my veins Hope is rekindled From this desperate state Glory shall be mine Above, his trident of steel Astride a magnificent steed Destroyer of worlds and the shimmering tide Riches and murder and greed Poseidon, Lord of the deep My vow, I keep To fight, and to serve and to kill for your rule Our enemies die as they sleep Falling in Temptation destroys me Mortal sin My weakness defiles me Through my veins Hope is rekindled From this desperate state Glory shall be mine
