Lyrics
[Menacing escalating epic intro]
[Verse 1]
Back in nineteen-oh-four, beneath the skies so grey,
The Tsar's proud navy sailed to Arthur's siege away.
A daring plan, a voyage long, with God on high abreast,
The colors flew near Japan's shores, a bold imperial quest.
Who’d claim China at their feet? Conflict would decree,
Meiji Emperor or Tsar Nicholas’s victory!
Two hundred twenty days at sea, a course both cruel and stark,
From the Baltic waves, they steered their quest to Vladivostok's heart.
[Chorus]
A wild pack charging, instilling fright!
Like ocean's fury, foretelling enemies' plight!
Cutting through the seas in armor, full steam sparks the fight,
Doomed to die, they are the last fleet of the Nicholas's might!
[Verse 2]
In darkness blind, by destiny entwined,
The plan’s unveiled, the foe awaits, the battle's lines defined.
Thirty-seven faced one-twenty-five, with death, they rendezvous,
No turning back, retreat is black, the path they must pursue!
The battle’s fate in iron grips, the ensnaring trap was set,
A tempest of artillery tore the armor into shreds.
Waves crashed against the pyres, the chain was laid beneath the knife,
Tsushima's shores were drenched from heavens with the rain of strife.
[Chorus]
A wild pack charging, instilling fright!
Like ocean's fury, foretelling enemies' plight!
Cutting through the seas in armor, full steam sparks the fight,
Doomed to die, they are the last fleet of the Nicholas's might!
[Metal intermedia]
[Bridge]
A steel blade piercing silence, gives the signaling sweep,
Iron clads of empires clash, in the deep sea's epic leap!
[Chorus]
A wild pack charging, instilling fright!
Like ocean's fury, foretelling enemies' plight!
Cutting through the seas in armor, full steam sparks the fight,
Doomed to die, they are the last fleet of the Nicholas's might!
[Sad guitar outro]
[Chorus]
A wild pack charging, instilling fright!
Like ocean's fury, foretelling enemies' plight!
Cutting through the seas in armor, full steam sparks the fight,
Doomed to die, they are the last fleet of the Nicholas's might!
[Sad guitar outro]
