LAST WORDS

on july 6th
we set the sails towards whitby
leaving varna
sailing the black sea
eight men we were
a journey to start
the homeland in mind and god in our hearts

after few days
the crew was full of fear
and on night number ten
the first sailor disappeared
only 8 nights later
witnessed by the moon
he was followed by sailor number two

5 days and 4 nights
i lost no more men
but at the same night
death struck again
the very next night
all prayers had failed
‘cause another three souls have been taken away

on august the third
the last member of my crew
told me about the horror
that he ran into
“my captain come with me,
there’s no other way out”
these were his last words before he jumped over board

i can’t escape my woe
mustn’t leave my ship alone
i’m at the mercy of my foe

now i stand here
bound to the wheel
trying to reach my familiar pier
as daylight fades
and the sun goes down
another night is about to come

a sound behind my back
sends me chills through my spine
something is approaching me
to end my life
death is coming
i feel so forlorn
i speak a last prayer may god help my soul
