A High Seas Scarecrow

Luke A, Fink

Pity oh me
Will you deny
I am the fool
Rising lies
Bloody moonrise
Harbor of evil
Tomorrow comes
I am but a dream
Life's sorrow
Holding fast
Petrify the heart
Stone skeleton's
Raking in the sea
Far below
Davy Jone's reach
Beneath the waves
High above the bones
The skull cries my name
The sailing fiend
Aboard the Moring Star
