Cursed - Sadus

«So you think a man can cheat death and outwit doom???»

«I say a cunning man can cheat death for a long time???»

He spoke to the curse and nothing more, to set our fate

Cursed to leave, cursed to light, cursed to die

In what words might death call?

Repeat them thrice, that is all

The hooded stranger said those words

All around us no one heard

He spoke the curse and nothing more

To set our fate to the Bleak Shore

In a voice only spoken to us

We must rise and leave at once

To that place where death hunts

A thousand miles have come and gone

And all around life wanes on

Sailing west to the ocean’s song

A thousand more will come to pass

But our deaths come at last…

Despite the doom that holds us fast?

Thirty days then cliffs appear

The blackened sands are drawing near

The Bleak Shore and unknown fear

«So you think a man can cheat death and outwit doom???»

«I say a cunning man can cheat death for a long time???»

He spoke to the curse and nothing more, to set our fate

Cursed to leave, cursed to light, cursed to die

Bleak Shore… Bleak Shore… Bleak Shore…

In what way might death chance?

Spoken three times, held in trance

Black dead eyes transfixed in space

The bloodless lips part the pale face

He spoke the curse and nothing more

We sail to death to the Bleak Shore

In a voice only spoken to us

We must rise and leave at once

To that place where death hunts

A thousand miles have come and gone

And all around life wanes on

Sailing west to the ocean’s song

A thousand more will come to pass

But our deaths come at last…

Despite the doom that holds us fast?

Thirty days then cliffs appear

The blackened sands, unknown fear

The Bleak Shore is why we’re here
