about

Join us on our (slightly shorter) maiden voyage as we recite the age old tale of seduction, betrayal and the sorrow the realisation of deceit brings

lyrics

As night falls
Silence follows
The air is still
Time is borrowed

All is calm
All is clear
A burning pain
The smell of fear

Tilt the hourglass
Let time take its course
With each passing moment
A thousand new thoughts

Captive, reactive

There is a moment
Shining so clear
There is a time
Lost under fear

I never thought I'd see it this way
Bound into iron, bound to the waves
Black of the ocean, wind in the sails
Darkness descends, bound in these chains
I never thought I'd see it this way
Bound into iron, bound to the waves

As the waves do

Adrift on the memories
Of a time spent with you
A fool for seduction
Was a word of it true?

Time passes by
How I was such a fool
I swallowed your lies
And your charm built my tomb

There was no escape
There was no chance to be free
Your eyes in their glory
Cast their gaze upon me

Each of those words
Brushed like silk by my ears
I grasp at the thought
That just one was sincere

There's a reflection
Haunting my dreams
How I remain
Who I have been

The curve in your lips, a scimitars blade
Voice of the wind, lead me astray
Knots in your hair like wrecks in the reef
There's a danger to mystery
And if we dare to follow the myth
What we unearth, we must persist

As the waves do

You brought me to my knees
A prisoner on the seas

Azure presentations
Bring cause for rumination
It burns so hot in my soul
It carries me on, on and on

If only for a moment
Left weightless in the ocean
It seems so real, so true and so clear
But its wistful thinking based on the premise of chance

But you
You could set me free

A prisoner on the seas
