It Was Them
It was them I saw, I know!
It was them.
In the storm, on the bow, lost in the cold
I saw them
In the howling winds all around
I heard them
In the spray, the mist, the yawing rise and fall
Our children!
In the water, cold for evermore
I feel them
As we sank, down we go, down we go
We love them
We can see their lost souls
But can't find them
The ship vanished but here we remain in this watery hole
Sorrowed torment.
