Lyrics Metal Church

Metal Church

Burial At Sea

Black scarred and bleeding

From the lashes to my soul

I chose to stand my ground

Not do as I was told

Thinking like mindless sheep

These people were my friends

Now I feel abandoned

With a pain that never ends

My blood is boiling now

On this journey

To no avail

On this ship of fools

We're gonna die

Will no one listen to what i say

I saw the charts

I saw the maps

I know we're way of course

I've got to stop this captain

His twisted wicked force

We're on our way

To certain death

To drown among the ice

If I don't stop this madness now

The ship will pay the price

Holding tight the prison bars

As we drift into the mist

I can't believe

This is happening

My guts they wrench and twist

The air is getting colder now

We're sailing further north

I bow down to my knees

And I cry out to the lord

In icy wasteland

The sun begins to set

I see the frozen corpses

My shipmates on the deck

I pull myself up to the rail

Make my one last prayer

Submerge myself to the iron depths

As I drown my life's despair
