lyrics

In dark, dark days and a long time ago
They knew my name on every shore
I’ve cut the throats of a thousand men
And I wish I had cut more
Well, the kingsmen crossed me on dry land
Sent to the gallows by the crown’s command
Fight like a man and you’ll hang like a dog
May all their souls be damned  Jet black sails over seven seas
Death on the wind of a westward breeze
Red sky morning whispers a warning
Dead girls tell no tales

Well, there’s a ghost ship comin’ for your broken mind
(The depths drag up our song!)
For thirsty men we’ll be their end
(We know it won’t take long)
We sail and we sail from coast to coast
Just searching for some truth
We burn each port, a black-hearted sort
Best hope it never happens to you!

Jet black sails over seven seas
Death on the wind of a westward breeze
Red sky morning whispers a warning
Dead girls tell no tales

Black cloud arising
Way hey away
Way hey away
Black cloud arising
(Raise hell! Raise up the sail!)
Way hey away
Way hey away
(Raise hell! Raise up the sail!)
(Raise hell! Raise up the sail!)

Jet black sails over seven seas
Death on the wind of a westward breeze
Red sky morning whispers a warning
Dead girls tell no tales
Jet black sails over seven seas
Death on the wind of a westward breeze
Red sky morning whispers a warning
Dead girls tell no tales
Dead girls tell no tales
Dead girls tell no tales!

One day I came across this title on YouTube and it intrigued me. The nostalgy hit me so much that I went back on IRC in 2019. Thanks to that, I met my girlfriend after being single for 15 years, and moved to a new town 6 hours away from me. All of that because of a click on that song. Music has the power to change people's life and this track is my personal proof of that fact. swipesomething
