letra de magic death sea nemesis - eunuchs

[intro]
five years gone by since i caught the beast
five empires worth of wealth i’ve lost
down holes of vice
the hounds of dept snapping at my heels have chased me back aboard my ship
and out to sea, back to leviathan

[chorus]
wealth fades but g*nius lingers
colossus vanquished with the lift of a finger
saucer eyes
strangled dead
idiots crave
glory’s whisper
wise men answer
industry’s question
do you have the oil?
soon, boys, soon

[verse 1]
on the twisted decks of turpentine i perch, i perch
goshawk’s eye rifles through
the men gathered below
and the dullards watch me lie
oh, what a reason to die
to be swallowed up by pride
they gather round and gather round
the waves come crashing down
and i sing to them in silver tongue of infamy bonafide
my eyes fix fast onto a gaping mouth
latched to his mother’s side
oh, madam, your child could be
a hero in the harbour century
take my arm and come with me
she nodded yes, he took my hand
his future washed out in the sand
and he tails me like a crippled dog
onto my vessels deck
his eyes look back with a stupid stare
his last look at the shore
[bridge]
oh, slapped in the face by flying fish
albatross in broken skies guiding me
oh, carp and sturgeon, salmon, flounder
feast on his stomachs spoils
i cackle as the leopard seal
oh, oh, thousands of miles from land
apparitions slow my hand

[verse 2]
the face of god etched into the clouds
looks down on me, i turn to sea
streaks of quartz
break malachite sea
the wake of a beast as long as sailors lies
looks of fear break in idiot eyes
eat your pomegranates and be quiet, he can hear you
a head arose
archipelagos of spines
the boy fixed fast in terror sobs and whines
are you going to do something about it or shake like dog who has had it’s f-cking head kicked in?!
i push him off the f-cking boat
arms flailing too weak to float
leviathan devours the sinking shadow
swallows whole like a python to a sparrow
[chorus]
wealth fades but g*nius lingers
colossus vanquished with the lift of a finger
saucer eyes
death of the beast

[verse 3]
saucer eyes
rolled back to white
a fortune gained my sacred rite
the tycoons lying
a mothers crying
the crowds cheering
the merchant hustling
the buyers buying
wet markets flowing
the auctions boiling
my pockets gorging
my name forever golden in their eyes
the beast poisoned
my soul poisoned
my wealth poisoned but it’s immune
the gods crying
my soul charring
the lamp fl!ckering
the gold tarnishing
the holes open
the cycle turning
the sea churning
the only witness
my life is a half life, a half life, a half life
