lyrics

Boarder me up son but please bring me some wine
Tonight i dine on this unholy of time
So run along now but please save your family
When this ship goes down ill take that devil with me

Now along from each other the tempest he's arrived
With the wind whistling wildly across the face of these skies
This ship is me brother , my only family
So i look into his eyes I'm taking that devil with me

With me at sea
With me at sea

So i cannot see the things that i least desire
But right now in front i see the face that drowns in fire
And i want to sink his growing smile
He wants to sink mine to
So he stands up he says to me
Let us devils sink at sea

At sea with me
At sea with me

So boarder me up son but please bring me some wine
Tonight i dine on this unholy of time
So run along now but please save your family
When this ship goes down ill take that devil with me
