lyrics

Among the distant
frozen northern waves
As I sailed, I found horror
A grand atrocity
There were hundreds
Maybe thousands
Of dead souls
Entombed in ice
Far as the eye could see

The faces, the bodies
Twisted and disfigured as they cried
The women, the children
Screaming out for help
With their eyes
Never in all my years on the sea
Have I spied such as this
Frozen effigy

Below decks, I hastened
Sensing the approaching doom
Instruments say nothing
Some impending danger I assume
Submersion aversion
I must have a deeper scan
Something is afoot in the
Frozen northern deep

Quenched fires of
Burning identities lost
These are not

Crystalline inorganic
Structure of which
These are wrought

Tell the tale
Of their untimely
Deposition

Replicants to
Give away my position

There is one monstrosity
In tales I have heard
That was said to leave
A wake of souls
The mighty Hatefish of old

The legends be true
The hatefish hunts
These waters, blue
Upon my life, I must
Live to testify
But what of the fake souls
There must be some
Way to unfold this
Puzzling mystery

The faces, the bodies
Twisted and disfigured as they cried
The women, the children
Screaming out for help
With their eyes
Never in all my years on the sea
Have I spied such as this
Frozen effigy

Below decks, I hastened
Sensing some impending doom
Instruments say nothing
The approaching danger I assume
Submersion aversion
I must have a deeper scan
Something is afoot in the
Frozen northern deep

I found while studying
This boat a remote
It could serve to see
Far below and without hurt
Disembodied vision
I speed you on your way
After and inside the fiend

Here, a monstrosity
The tales I heard were true
The sea full of faces
dead and blue
Yet, inside the monster
I found myself anew
The faces come
From me and you

It knows your dreams
And fabricates your nightmares
Though you'll never see its face
Your every scream
Every time you twist
Your face in angst
Could become these
Floating figures

I stand aghast
Mortified
Whole worlds of pain
Intertwined
It all ends here in this
frozen effigy forever
