[Intro] Drum on the deck Rain on the hand Raise up the dead Storm of the Damned [Verse] The sky cracked open like a wound The moon went under black The rigging screamed with frozen ropes The sea began to attack [Pre-Chorus] All hands below All souls above No mercy left No sign of love [Chorus] Storm of the Damned Break on the bow Storm of the Damned We are ready now Thunder roll and lightning stand Strike the curse from the captain’s hand We sail, we sing, we make our stand Into the Storm of the Damned [Verse] The waves rose high as cathedral walls With windows made of foam And in each wave a dead man’s face Was begging to go home [Pre-Chorus] The bell struck seven The mast bent low The lantern burned With a funeral glow [Chorus] Storm of the Damned Break on the bow Storm of the Damned We are ready now Thunder roll and lightning stand Strike the curse from the captain’s hand We sail, we sing, we make our stand Into the Storm of the Damned [Instrumental] Beat the drum Bite the rain Tear the night Break the chain [Bridge] The captain laughed at the hurricane And raised his empty eyes But every voice aboard that ship Rose louder than the skies [Breakdown] We are not cargo We are not slaves We are not shadows We are not waves [Build-up] Sing, brothers, sing Till the timbers split Sing for the dawn At the end of it [Chorus] Storm of the Damned Break on the bow Storm of the Damned We are ready now Thunder roll and lightning stand Strike the curse from the captain’s hand We sail, we sing, we make our stand Into the Storm of the Damned [Chorus] Storm of the Damned Tear through the night Storm of the Damned Bring us into light Thunder roll and lightning stand Wash the blood from the blackened sand We sail, we sing, we make our stand Inside the Storm of the Damned [Outro] Drum on the deck Rain on the hand Raise up the dead Storm of the Damned
