Stormbound on the Black Horizon

[Intro]
[ship bells tolling
Distant gulls
Low strings rising]

[Verse 1]
Salt on my tongue
Rope burns my hands
Charts on the table
Ink bleeding into the plans

Lanterns swing low
Men mutter prayers
Storm in the barrel
Fire in the captain’s chair

[Pre-Chorus]
Waves climb higher
Masts scream
Splinters fly
But we
We don’t bow
We rise

[Chorus]
Stormbound on the black horizon
Break the swell
We carve our name
All in
On this shattered ocean
Thunder rolls
But we stay the same
Raise that ragged flag up higher
Let it tear and let it flame
Stormbound on the black horizon
We were born to ride this rage

[Verse 2]
Teeth made of gold
Scars like a map
Every old story
Folded in the leather strap

Cannon doors slam
Cold iron sings
Fear tastes like iron
Glory tastes like anything

[Pre-Chorus]
Clouds fall lower
Sky cracks open wide
Still we
Laugh into the tide

[Chorus]
Stormbound on the black horizon
Break the swell
We carve our name
All in
On this shattered ocean
Thunder rolls
But we stay the same
Raise that ragged flag up higher
Let it tear and let it flame
Stormbound on the black horizon
We were born to ride this rage

[Bridge]
If we sink
We sink like kings (hey!)
If we live
We live like thieves
Every crest
A vow we scream
This wild water
Carries our creed

[Chorus]
Stormbound on the black horizon
Break the swell
We carve our name
All in
On this shattered ocean
Thunder rolls
But we stay the same
Raise that ragged flag up higher
Let it tear and let it flame
Stormbound on the black horizon
We were born to ride this rage
