Black Sails at Midnight

From lands across the sea we have returned once more With countless treasures plundered from those distant shores But now the time has come, our destiny at hand With cannonfire and battlecry we will reclaim this land Misery and slaughter we left burning in our wake A legacy of torment is rightfully ours to take We sail the endless oceans We sail the raging seas The quest is never ending It leads us to destiny The endless quest is calling us another time The jolly roger in the sky is our sign The mountains shook, the seas began to boil As we set out again to conquer foreign soil Misery and slaughter we left burning in our wake A legacy of torment is rightfully ours to take We sail the endless oceans We sail the raging seas The quest is never ending It leads us to destiny

Legend speaks of a beast Three hundred miles from it's tip to it's tail None have seen it, yet all know it's name Like the ark of the covenant, or the holy grail We set out on a quest In search of the lair, where the creature doth dwell On a ransom to bring back it's head Our journey would take us to the depths of hell His eyes shine like the rays of morning His mouth is as a burning flame Leviathan Cresting the waves Leading us all to the grave Leviathan Slaying all foes Who dare to oppose Tearing bodies limb from limb Eviscerating on a whim The skies turned to black The oceans fell dead, no winds dared to blow Then out the darkness with a thunderous roar Leviathan rose up from the depths below Cannons fired, and swords tasted blood As the beast turned to strike with rage in it's eyes From it's mouth came a great ball of flame It was then we all knew, that the end was nigh His eyes shine like the rays of morning His mouth is as a burning flame Leviathan Cresting the waves Leading us all to the grave Leviathan Slaying all foes Who dare to oppose Tearing bodies limb from limb Eviscerating on a whim His eyes shine like the rays of morning His mouth is as a burning flame His nostrils seethe with fumes of brimstone He is the beast that can't be tamed Leviathan Cresting the waves Leading us all to the grave Leviathan Slaying all foes Who dare to oppose Tearing bodies limb from limb Eviscerating on a whim

Many a year I have worked in these parts Running this inn that ain't marked on no charts Though its location to many is known If you're to find it you have to be shown Through methods long hidden we carefully craft A beverage to rival the Huntmaster's draught The mere smell of which, the Gods would entice And them that know call it that Famous Ol' Spiced Here sits a man, a smuggler by trade A-boastin' of all of the money he's made Runnin' his liquor to here and to there Travellin' all over and peddlin' his wares He says he's had beers from Prussia and wines Taken from all of the very best vines But none of these tipples could ever suffice So I'll bring him a jug of that Famous Ol' Spiced Oh, pour me a slug of it Throw me a mug of it Bring me a jug of that Famous Ol' Spiced In walks a sailor all battered and blue Fallen afoul of his captain and crew They'd pulled in to port, their cargo was stacked But three hours later he's caught in the act Acquainting himself with the skipper's own wife This fool was lucky to leave with his life He's not here for doctors or friendly advice He just wants a jug of that Famous Ol' Spiced Oh, pour me a slug of it Throw me a mug of it Bring me a jug of that Famous Ol' Spiced For men of the sea go as fast as they come And leave little more than the tales they have spun So sing me your sermon and pay me my price And I'll give you a jug of that Famous Ol' Spiced Oh, pour me a slug of it Throw me a mug of it Bring me a jug of that Famous Ol' Spiced

My friends I stand before you To tell a truth most dire There lurks a traitor in our midsts Who hath invoked the captain's ire He don't deserve no mercy We ought to shoot him with a gun But I am not an evil man So first let's have a little fun We'll tie that scoundrel to a rope And throw him overboard Drag him underneath the ship A terrifying deadly trip Keelhaul that filthy landlubber Send him down to the depths below Make that bastard walk the plank With a bottle of rum and a yo ho ho I will not say what he has done His sins are far too grave to tell It's not my place to judge a man But for them he will burn in hell The sharks will dine upon his flesh And Davy Jones will have his soul Take his money and his hat He won't need them where he's gonna go But first lets tie him to a rope And throw him overboard Drag him underneath the ship A terrifying deadly trip Keelhaul that filthy landlubber Send him down to the depths below Make that bastard walk the plank With a bottle of rum and a yo ho ho

Another day goes by, another setting sun As the light begins to fade Upon this silent ship I now chart a course Yet no wind blows these tattered sails For reasons lost to time, that I cannot recall Alone I sail the endless seas The hands of fate have slain the crew, my only friends And soon this doom will come for me And I look back and wonder Of the times we once shared I stand here alone on the bow of the ship Counting the hours 'til I die Abandoned to fate with no chance of return I raise up my fist to the sky But know that these days were the best of our lives And nothing can take that away So when we are dead we will all meet again And fight to the end of our days Many years have I wandered Alone and afraid It seems now i've found a reason to live As I stare at my grave I ride the endless tide that's carried me so long Heavy heart and broken soul Would this have always been? Is this destiny? I raise my head and onwards go. And I know that the end comes There's no reason to be scared I stand here alone on the bow of the ship Counting the hours 'til I die Abandoned to fate with no chance of return I raise up my fist to the sky But know that these days were the best of our lives And nothing can take that away So when we are dead we will all meet again And fight to the end of our days

Go - the cold moonlight reflecting off your blade So many centuries spent waiting for this day Ride - across the seas beneath a blackened sail Know that a painful death awaits us if we fail Out of the darkness they came With cannons a'raging and torches aflame Slaying all poseurs who stand in their way Black Sails at Midnight You're dead by daylight Black Sails at Midnight Your fate - Too late The time has come for you to face your darkest fears Screams of agony are ringing in your ears Die - a frenzied slaughter on the battlefield Nowhere for you to run, tonight your fate is sealed Out of the darkness they came With cannons a'raging and torches aflame Slaying all poseurs who stand in their way Black Sails at Midnight You're dead by daylight Black Sails at Midnight Your fate - Too late

Is this song not instrumental?

Though you see me now a mere ghost of a man I once had the heart of a lion Commanded my ship between many a shore The ol' Jolly Roger a-flyin Mine was a name that struck fear into men And regret into plenty of lasses Oh, how I wish I could take back those days As I stare at these empty beer-glasses I think of the times past when I had it all I toyed with men's wives and their daughters And in my pursuit of this ill-gotten wealth I stabbed and I slashed and I slaghtered. And for what? The men that I've fought Are matched by the number of women I've bought And for what? I've killed and I've shot And reddened the cold tears of children with blood And If I could go back and make my amends I'd make all those mistakes again I'd kill every last one of those bastards, my friend My ship was the last sight that many would see As we narrowed the gap with our quarry The sound of the cannons and splintering wood Would herald our paths into glory We seized all the bounty and scuppered the ship Our hearts hadn't time for the wounded I took my share and the crew got the rest And on into port we then bounded Life has many pleasures, and we had our fill Of food and of wenches and beer When we'd tired of the port or had drunken it dry The time to set sail would come near And for what? We heeded no law Made other men suffer so we could have more And for what? We lived every day With the noose of the hangman a hair's breadth away And If I could go back and make my amends I'd make all those mistakes again I'd kill every last one of those bastards, my friend Oh I have seen wonders you'd never have dreamed, And taken my fair share, I must say Holds full of booty I happily siezed From crews who would not see a new day Spanish gold came and went, gem stones got sold, But I knew more lay on the horizon, Yet the beer was too good and the gals were too sweet And now in my old age it's gone These memories were bought with the lives of good men A price that I paid without scruple So many souls suffered so I could get drunk And swagger from brothel to brothel And for what? It's been many years Yet the screams of the vanquished still ring in my ears And for what? I've blood on my hands I wait for my place in the halls of the damned And If I could go back and make my amends I'd make all those mistakes again I'd kill every last one of those bastards, my friend

A thunderous crash in the dead of the night We ready our weapons, prepare for the fight My band of comrades, so cruelly betrayed Now face the cold edge of justice's blade They knew how to hit us, they knew where to look Our fortress was breached and its mighty walls shook Accused of this treason, I fled to the sea To track down the true source of that treachery Sold out, betrayed Attacked, besieged Outcast, accused Honour, refused Ride The Black Spot in my hand On a quest for the truth I scour the land This traitorous curr Shall die by my hand If I'm to be spared I must have his head I shall not rest 'til this traitor is dead I called in all favours, I bartered and bribed I must find this turncoat, and find him alive And so I was taken to a little old inn And deep in his cups, my man sat within We bitterly battled, but I won the fight And tied him beneath the high tide mark that night And when I'd made sure he could no longer stand I left him there with that Black Spot in his hand Avenged, absolved Justice, made right Vengeance, deserved Honour, preserved As the lifeless corpse of my enemy floats in the bay, choked on salty brine, I swear a deadly oath. By Poseidon's name, no traitor will go unpunished. Hear these words and tremble, for our vengeance shall be swift and merciless!
