The Sea Wolf - Slough Feg

The Sea Wolf - Slough Feg
The shadow of innocence gone
A childhood lost in the waves
For all time
While pouring over volumes I lay
Like curses that echo the sea
Without rhyme
Fortunes are drowned
Swallowed
Up by the sea shackled in time
Never known
Never seen
The battles are brimming below
The gallons of emptiness found
In the waves
A circling vortex of time
One thousand and more men are drowned
In their graves
Echoes of pride
Swallowed
Up by the sea shackled in time
Never lost
Never seen
I'm wizened and tired and cold
But fire still burns in my mind
You can see
Fortunes are found
Never lost never seen
This body is crooked and old
But doubtless I'll live and I'll die
By the sea
I'm wizened and tired and cold
But fire still burns in my mind
You can see
Fortunes are found
Now revealed by degree
Shackled in time
Now I'm lost
With the sea
