Here's to the broken, tormented and tossed.
The drifters still hoping to win what's been lost.
Dreams shattered. Vessel in tow.

Defeat is an option but it's best if you know.

As long as he is breathing a sailor never give up.
Long have you been a man, now be a conqueror.
Pain is temporary, but pride is forever.
We'll never stop we've tried but look there's really no surrender.
Been searching for the other side and I'll let them know it's me.
We came to show our battle cry, we are the people of the sea.
