On a green blue desert I'm drifting on and on Battle sounds still echo on inside my wicked mind Muzzle flash in the dawn On a mighty fortress Riding on the waves And the winds are enslaved Like a smoke-cutting sword Raping the elements As she's dancing on our graves Leading lives of borrowed time Borrowed time from our fates Like a knell the ship's bell chimes Fragile sounds of hate No lord nor king or country Will defeat the sea Every shot's a sacrifice Your blood will set us free We will survive Fighting for our lives The winds of fortune Always lead us on Forever free For the world to see The fearless masters Masters of the sea Servants of the wstern winds Hail the storms of the north Captors of the eastern winds Looting down in the south No lord nor king or country Will defeat the sea Every shot's a sacrifice Your blood will set us free We will survive Fighting for our lives The winds of fortune Always lead us on Forever free For the world to see The fearless masters Masters of the sea Look up to the southern sky My final sunset's gonna rise My spirit will return one day I swear revenge and close my eyes The black flag Will rescue me Our black flag Will reign the sea From the depths of the ocean We'll rise to plunder all We sail towards the yaws of hell On decks of blood you'll crawl! Fire! Open fire! The skull on black shall never fall Rapiers, cutlasses held up high Laughter of marauding hordes Screams of those doomed to die As blood is dripping from the swords Born by kings and queens And the pure will to live To kill and to careen Always take and never give Follow the pirates call When you're lost at all We're all for one And one for all We will survive Fighting for our lives The winds of fortune Always lead us on Forever free For the world to see The fearless masters Masters of the sea
