A Storm of Light
And We Wept the Black Ocean Within



1. Adrift (The Albatross I)

instrumental


2. Vast and Endless

Vast and endless
You are are the sea
Calling me against the waves

I'm wearing down
I'm cold and silent
Always across the sea

And all I've seen
I only know
That what's to come
Lies below

These hunters never tire
The blood they shed
All down
It soaks into my seams
The cries I have heard
All down
They will break me apart
Take us down
All down

Vast and endless
You are the sea
Calling me against the waves

I'm wearing down
I'm cold and silent
Always across the sea

The screams pierce my hull
Their cries break me
And the water turns into blood
I need a sign
And these visions that haunt me
Turn me into dust
I need a sign

The cold depth is all is all i know
The cold depth is all is all i know
The cold depth is all is all i know
The cold depth is all is all i know
Save me


3. Black Ocean

As the sunshine
Keeps me warm
These days are good
The hunt goes on

And the starlight
Keeps me safe
Through the night
The hunt goes on

Harpoons lie
Poised to fire
And for us
The hunt goes on

As the old man
Keeps my path
Safe and straight
The hunt goes on

This is my
Life as
A hunter in
This black ocean

I have no
Other
Purpose and
The hunt goes on

We will kill
For blood and money
Day and night
The hunt goes on

We will kill
For blood and money
Day and night
The hunt goes on


4. Thunderhead

tidal wave
take them away from me
thunderhead
strike them down and we'll prey

to the gods
of the sky and the sea
death to man
the earth may live and breathe

take - them
free - yourselves
they will
not stop
take - them
do what you will
with my husk
i will it to you
just take them away

tidal wave
take them away from me
thunderhead
strike them down and we'll prey

to the gods
of the sky and the sea
death to man
the earth may live and breathe

rise and seal our fate
disintegrate us now
destroyer
turn us into ghosts
destroyer
turn us into dust
turn us into dust
turn us into ghosts


5. Undertow (The Albatross II)

instrumental


6. Mass

what i have seen
let me repay
their lives
their dreams

i'll give this mass
to the depths to crush
and rust my shell
i could have saved them

what i could have done
they will never know
while they died in pain
i kept afloat
i could have saved them
i could have sunk down

i was constructed for this
it was not my choice
what i could have done
they will never know
while they died in pain
i kept afloat
what i could have done
they will never know

i offer this vessel
to pay them back
i will seek the ice
and i will breach this hull
i will give myself completely
and i will feel the water rush in
i will watch these men drown
and i will sink down

to the depths to crush
and rust my shell

i could have saved them

to the depths to crush
and rust my shell
i could have
saved them


7. Leaden Tide

i'm falling
and the beasts cry
abandon me, set me free
worthless, sinking i should be
i'm failing
and they all die
the feeling of guilt weighs down
abandon me, set me free
worthless, sinking i should be

i am failing

i'm helpless
and used for blood
the feeling of guilt weighs down
i cannot stop them
they kill for greed
and the feeling of guilt pulls down

abandon me, set me free
worthless, sinking i should be

i am failing
i am guilty
i am falling
i am breaking
i am nothing
i am sinking


8. Breach (The Albatross III)

instrumental


9. Descent

instrumental


10. Iron Heart

Iron heart
Flood in, consume me
My wounds welcome you here

The cold comforts this fall
Flood in, consume

Embrace this hull
And carry me in your waves

Drifting down
The stars they all fade away

These new dreams
I rust and erode alone
Alone in the cold

Take me now
To bury me under your fathoms
To feed on my black iron heart

The sea and the salt will corrode
And join us together as one
Rest this hull down
Rot my iron into the sands
Dissolve these bolts into the past
Rust this hull down
