Ghostship (Part Ii)
Ghostship...
Trailing souls in its' wake
Strange luminescence,
more souls to take
The flapping of torn sails
Masts, bleached grey
Ghostly trails,
lighting the way
Fourteen score years,
circumnavigated seas
Ghostship...
Looking for me...
Sea smoke...
Sea mist...
Tattered sails
Mournful wails
In the halflight,
Masts appear through the sea mist
Ghostship...
A haunting
For the night
Vanishing into the gloom
Ghostship...
Looking for a soul
Strange luminescence
Deathly grip
Deathly cold
Ghostship...
Calling me
Midnightsea
Strange glow,
from the decks below
Blackened sides,
burnt too
You cannot escape
Ghostship...
Looking for me...
Looking for you...
