Captain Hellfire - On Our Knees Lyrics




[ Featuring the Wretched Brethren ]

When the drink like a candle
Melts through your insides
As campfires pass the burden
To the morning sunlight
The piled pale bodies
Stretch across the shoreline
Yes this is the life
We are fighting for

A fair maiden's breath
Caresses your chest
Her soft golden tresses
In scarred arms do rest
But the coins are all gone
And your lives are well worn
Oh now you must find a great ship to sail on...

Our life here is hard
But we do as we please
The justice is rough
But the love here is free
Send the dogs of old England
To snap at my feet
If they catch me out here
They won't find me
On my knees

We toil in the belly of a great wooden beast
The Devil's Revenge
Tastes forever sweet
Now the winds they do howl
And the black seas do foam
And onward and onward
And onward we go

A fair maiden's breath
Escapes to the sky
Screams tangled in rigging
Her old husband dies
'Cos despite all our warnings
They chose to defy
And now up to heaven
Their black souls will rise

Our life here is hard
But we do as we please
The justice is rough
But the love here is free
Send the dogs of old England
To snap at my feet
If they catch me out here
They won't find me
On my knees
