Descend Into Maelstrom
Lyrics
The old man before you is not reality.
What I saw and tell you so, none deemed it to be true.
A cry of dismay turned my hair into grey.
And the odour of the sea, for never shall abandon me.
The thunderous, raging void in which all oceans end,
took me by supernal force, into the Maelstrom I descend!
Flashing lights, crushing sea!
Thunder and storm came unto me.
Blackened clouds and copper moon!
Eternity woke from its slumber.
All day turned black and night came.
The deeper I was swallowed, the more was still.
A descent into Maelstrom.
A descent into Maelstrom.
Just how I could escape, to this day I know not.
My brig was torn to shreds and so the fisher’s lot!
In my deep despair I jumped into its eye.
It chewed me through and spit me out,
and so I found my way up high!
Flashing lights, crushing sea!
Thunder and storm came unto me.
Blackened clouds and copper moon!
Eternity woke from its slumber.
All day turned black and night came.
The deeper I was swallowed, the more was still.
A descent into Maelstrom.
A descent into Maelstrom.
What I saw and tell you so, none deemed it to be true.
A cry of dismay turned my hair into grey.
And the odour of the sea, for never shall abandon me.
The thunderous, raging void in which all oceans end,
took me by supernal force, into the Maelstrom I descend!
Flashing lights, crushing sea!
Thunder and storm came unto me.
Blackened clouds and copper moon!
Eternity woke from its slumber.
All day turned black and night came.
The deeper I was swallowed, the more was still.
A descent into Maelstrom.
A descent into Maelstrom.
Just how I could escape, to this day I know not.
My brig was torn to shreds and so the fisher’s lot!
In my deep despair I jumped into its eye.
It chewed me through and spit me out,
and so I found my way up high!
Flashing lights, crushing sea!
Thunder and storm came unto me.
Blackened clouds and copper moon!
Eternity woke from its slumber.
All day turned black and night came.
The deeper I was swallowed, the more was still.
A descent into Maelstrom.
A descent into Maelstrom.
