The old man before you
Is not reality
What I saw and tell you so

None deemed it to be true

A cry of dismay

Turned my hair into gray
And the odour of the sea
For never shall abandon me


The thunderous, raging void
In which all oceans end

Took me by supernal force
Into the Maelstrom I descend!


Flashing lights! Crushing sea!
Thunder and storm came unto me!
Blackened clouds and copper moon

Eternity woke from it's slumber...

All day turned black - and night became

The deeper I was swallowed the more was still...
A descent into maelstrom
A descent into maelstrom


Just how I could escape
To this day I know not

My Brig was torn to shreds
And so the fishers lot!


In my deep despair
I jumped into it's eye
It chewed me up and spit me out

And so I found my way up high!

Flashing lights! Crushing sea!

Thunder and storm came unto me!
Blackened clouds and copper moon
Eternity woke from it's slumber...


All day turned black - and night became
The deeper I was swallowed the more was still...

A descent into maelstrom
A descent into maelstrom
