Down in the night

Ancient as sleep

Abandon our raft into the deep

Many still cling

Though she rots away

On yesterday's words, their tongues decay

The drowned stand proud once more

As they sing their mournful song

Their eyes beg me to join them

But iron wind pulls me along

Keep faith in me

As we throw ourselves free

I'll hold my doubts in silence

Carried as slaves

By ironbound waves

Yield to the ocean's violence

Though I may falter

And fail to reach the shore

Seek ye not after

For tomorrow's yours

Love me as the wolf loves her prey
