Linebacker Dirge - Fall of the Armada Lyrics

"Hard! To starboard!", strong and cold the captain screams
"The waves! Are rapture! 10 foot tall; They crash against our
Hull! Is shattered! One more hit and we will fall
Beneath! The umbra!
So raise the sails; We'll all rest when we're dead"

"Dear God! Dear Neptune! Dear anyone who hears this plea
Forgive us! We're empty! Soulless but defiantly alive
Please keep us! As anything that you can use
Beyond! The fodder! That we would be to soothe this fallow land"

(And then the storm front hit)

A crimson explosion as his face hits the floor of the galley
He drags himself o'er to a porthole
And catching a fleeting glance of death on the port side
He mistakes the storm for something closer to god
"The Leviathan rises
The Leviathan rises!"

"Please! Dear Captain. Listen to my message from the nest!
The storm front! Has changed it's course to directly at us"
"Well take us in!
For we will not be lowered
If we go down, we'll prove this monster is but fiction
A ghost"

Contrary. To Belief. Relief did ask me to take their lives myself
But I rejected. Yes I rejected. I refused. I was disgusted
For We are Neptune. We are Leviathan. And We will not be lowered

But as with all other doomed human endeavours
The real danger lies in vile self preservation
Where captains of men, captain their ships into others
And the Armada falls to Herself
