the last leviathan & prelude (live) - patty larkin lyrics

[chorus]
my soul has been torn from me and i am bleeding
my heart it has been rent and i am crying
as the beauty around me fails and i am screaming
i’m the last of the great whales and i am dying

[verse 1]
last night i heard the call of my last companions
the blast of a harpoon gun and i swam alone
i reflected on days gone by, when we were thousands
and i know that i soon must die, the last leviathan

[verse 2]
this morning the sun did rise in a crimson north sky
the ice was the color of blood and i heard the wind sigh
i rose up to take a breath, it was my last one
from a gun came the roar of death and now i’m undone

[chorus]
my soul has been torn from me and i am bleeding
my heart it has been rent and i am crying
as the beauty around me fails and i am screaming
i’m the last of the great whales and i am dying

[verse 3]
and now that we are all gone there’ll be no more hunting
the big fellow is no more and it’s no use lamenting
what race will be next in line all for the slaughter?
the elephant or the seal or your sons and daughters?
[chorus]
my soul has been torn from me and i am bleeding
my heart it has been rent and i am crying
as the beauty around me fails and i am screaming
i am the last of the great whales and i am dying
