I set upon the sea
to search for phantom sails
from tales my mum told me
A ghostly galleon
filled with gold
She sails alone
No crew
nor captain's guiding hand
Can tame the one
the sailors call the Shadow
Sun and horizon met
I weighed
the anchor hoisted sails
My course was set
My cutthroat crew conspiring
with the stars our guide
They point the way
through perils fraught
and lead us to the one
they call the Shadow
None can tame the one
the sailors call the Shadow
Lean left
Hard right
Hold tightly to her helm
She'll try to drown you
just for spite
Heave ho
'Til first light
She'll give a fight
to all who try to claim
the Shadow
None can tame the one
the sailors call the Shadow
A mighty tempest grew
The banshee cried turn back
but our resolve was true
We pointed bow ahead
and shouted
we'll break through
the jaws of hell
can't hold us back
There's nothing that can
keep us from the Shadow
The winds blew stronger still
The ocean raged
against us
tried to break our will
The sirens in the water
thirsty for the kill
Our vessel reeling
to and fro
to bear us to the one
they call the Shadow
None can keep us from the
one they call the Shadow
Lean left
Hard right
Hold tightly to her helm
She'll try to drown you
just for spite
Heave ho
'Til first light
She'll give a fight to all
who try to claim the Shadow
None can tame the one
the sailors call the Shadow
as thunder split the sky
The lightning drew a shape
beyond the tempest's eye
A chill ran through my spine
as legend came alive
Avast I cried all hands
as we prepare to take
the one they call the Shadow
All hands
as we approached her shell
The skies went silent
Seas went calm as if by spell
No signs of fight
or flight were in her
All was well
until I tried
to take her helm
Her rigging came alive
She hung my crew
before my eyes
She stole my sight
and cursed me
Captain of the Shadow
She took my eyes
and cursed me
Captain of the Shadow
Lean left
Hard right
Steer clear of her
I fear she'll eat your soul
She'll take your life
Heave ho
'Til first light
She'll claim the souls
of those who try
to tame the Shadow
None can tame the one
the sailors call the Shadow
None can tame the one
the sailors call the Shadow
