down below - stormfrun lyrics

i never was on for the drinking and dance
but i lived by the dice and the cards in my hands
but the goddess of fortune seemed loath of the sea
there were none of the crew who was poorer than me
i was walking the deck on a cold starry night
when the shape of a spectre appeared in my sight
he said: i am jones, and i’ve seen your demise
i’ve been moved by your suffering, i will help you rise

i’m his fool you see
and he’s waiting for me
down below, in a bottomless chasm
i’m his sailor to be
and he’s waiting for me
down below, down below, down below

he said i’ll make you richest of all of your crew
in return i require a promise from you
when your sand has run out, when your time here is through
you’ll sign up for me without further ado
i complied and i signed with my blood on the line
with no thought of my life, only gold in my mind
but i was deceived, i wish i had known
that i would be richest, but also alone

i’m his fool you see
and he’s waiting for me (laughing at me)
down below, in a bottomless chasm
i’m his sailor to be
and he’s waiting for me
down below, down below, down below
the next day i woke to a scream from the hold
where the first mate was found lying bleeding and cold
and a sailor came running with a nail in his eye
so we all ran to help him, but i knew he would die
soon enough we were caught in a fight for our lives
in a torrent of hail from a blue cloudless sky
when a freak wave swept half of the crew overboard
the captain went mad, and he fell on his sword

i’m his fool you see
and he’s laughing at me
down below, in a bottomless chasm
i’m his sailor to be
and he’s waiting for me
down below, down below, down below

now i’m drifting alone on an ocean so vast
the ships wealthiest sailor, but also the last
there’s a wind out of nowhere that’s filling my sails
there’s a sprinkling of frost building up on the rails

i’m his fool you see
and he’s laughing at me
down below, in a bottomless chasm
i’m his sailor to be
and he’s waiting for me
down below, down below, down below
i’m his fool you see
and he’s laughing at me
down below, in a bottomless chasm
i’m his sailor to be
and he’s waiting for me
down below, down below, down below
down below, down below, down below
down below, down below, down below
