Shadow

(Verse 1) Gather 'round, with solemn hearts, for a journey of woe and dread, Of a doomed quest upon the waves, where the living fear to tread, We embarked with courage strong, to challenge The Shadow's ire, But the ocean's depths held secrets grim, and our hopes were soon on fire. (Chorus) Listen, oh weary souls, to the echoes of our plight, Pirates bold turned pale with fear, in The Shadow's haunting light, In the tavern's quiet gloom, recall the horrors we faced, On a ghost ship's cursed journey, where every soul was displaced. (Verse 2) Captain's ambition led us forth, with dreams of fortune grand, Yet The Shadow's whispers on the wind, turned blessings into sand, Through tempests fierce and nights so cold, we chased that spectral ship, But with each passing moonless night, the grip of fear did grip. (Chorus) Hear, oh somber hearts, of the ghosts that walked our decks, The specters of our fallen kin, whose memories haunt and vex, In the tavern's heavy air, recount the toll we paid, To The Shadow's unyielding curse, in the depths where dreams decayed. (Bridge) Now I stand, the lone survivor, with a burden too heavy to bear, Of comrades lost to madness deep, and dreams dissolved in air, The Shadow still lingers, they say, a reminder of our plight, A solemn warning to all who chase, of the darkness in the night. (Chorus) Share with me, oh solemn souls, the sorrow in our eyes, For the price of chasing ghostly dreams, is a burden no one buys, In the tavern's mournful song, hear the echoes of our past, Of a ghost ship that sails on, in the shadows that will last. (Outro) And so I end this journey of woe, with a prayer for those now gone, May their restless spirits find their peace, in the light of a distant dawn, For The Shadow's ship may sail on, but our memories shall remain, In the hearts of those who remember, the price of chasing vain. (Outro) And so I end this journey of woe, with a prayer for those now gone, May their restless spirits find their peace, in the light of a distant dawn, For The Shadow's ship may sail on, but our memories shall remain, In the hearts of those who remember, the price of chasing vain.
