Lyrics:

There’s a shore where sea dogs go,
A strand of black desire
An island where they trap themselves
To spree away their lives
 
Staggering through the Caribbean fog
Towards the glimmering lights
Lured by the clouds of opiates that flood them in the night
 
On Wasters’ Island there’s not one
Not a single steady head
World travellers who have gone to the end
 
Smell of substance everywhere, more smoke then there is air
Puffed-up lads lie on the ground just gazing away their time
Where they come from no one knows but no one really cares
Its a sanctuary for long lost souls who want to end.
 
On Wasters’ Island there’s not one
Not a single steady head
World travellers who have gone to the end
Then came back
 
On Wasters’ Island there’s not one
Not a single steady head
Old sea dogs who got nothing from the end
(World travellers who have gone to the end)

Lyrics:

All I ever wanted
Was to have an evil battleship
To be a new society’s relentless king
And not to give a fuck about anything
 
Everything I wanted
Was to be lost and was to be free
 
Catch me with your eyes
I’ll be lost into the night for long
(Before you realize)
We’re identified
By the clinkin’ of the knives we hold
 
Oh but that’s only for the nighttime
 
All I ever wanted
Was to be on a never-ending holiday trip
With a gang of whores and bastards and a couple of drinks
Ignoring whatever anyone would think
 
“Mercy me”, he cries
He’s not undetected by the lost souls
A victim of the crime,
The haven heard the terrifying howls
 
Oh but that’s just an event the night hides
Soon there everything will be on our side
 
We’re gonna steal all the money from the rich just for fun
We’re gonna dance around this ugly town before we see the sun
We’re gonna rise above the upper classes with their wealthy stuff
We’re gonna disappear again when we had enough
 
Catch me with your eyes
I’m here but in a trice I’ll be gone
Too severe to die
It doesn’t matter how you try
It’s over for you,
It’s over for you

Lost and Free

Lyrics:

Far out on the dark blue waters
The ocean leads one’s fate
And thats exactly how Captain Sturgess
Crossed the Queen Ann’s way

“Rise, rise! The pirates have come for our lives
Fight, fight! Tonight we cannot die!”

Sturgess’ fearsome figure
Intimidated all his men 
So the men were all loading the cannons
And tightened the sails with all their strength

“Rise, rise! These bastards have come for our lives
Fight, fight! This isn’t the final hour!”

But oh, the truth is cruel
For by midnight Teach owned crew and ship

But hark!
In the distance a flash of white light
But hark!
There’s rumble in Heavens up high 
But hark!  
The great black sky starts pouring down
And suddenly the hurricane strikes them with full might

By the morning light
Debris littered the sight
And Sturgess floted on a broken board
Good fortune on his side 

Rise, rise! The ocean is breaking your life
Fight, fight, until your last hour

Lyrics:

Oh the soldiers are chasing me
A lot of things that I had to steal
To find a way to escape
 
Came round the corner to an alleyway
Although the chasers have gone astray
I have to leave this bay
 
I’m still way too young to face this threat
They want to see me trapped and hanged
I’ve no more reasons to stay
 
There’s a walker staring with a trustless face
And I don’t mind being betrayed
People are the same
They’re all the same…
 
At the port I meet my Henry
He’s a friend in need
He knows a smuggler departing
 
Say goodbye to my Emily
She’s a keeper at Joe’s inn
For long, she hasn’t talked to me
As I can’t wash my sins off
 
Emily said I made a big mistake
She was out of her mind when she saw my shade
On the windowpane
 
I said I was sorry being bad to her
Putting her life to such danger
On that crucial day
 
She sighed and she asked me to leave her place
But I had a reason to hesitate
Still longing for an embrace
 
But she turned her back and I had no time
Her tongue was tied but I knew she cried
She was a mourning fay
 
And now I’m a stowaway
And she’s far far away now
 
Nave mercantile
Refugees in her chest
Let them have a long lull
 
Nave mercantile
Let me leave this land
Cover me in your dark hull

Nave Mercantile
