Stricken with a disease at sea One antidote can't cure Fallen Upon this cold wooden deck Shivering As the ship faces strong winds Knowing my time on earth will end Barricaded away from the crew No one will talk for months After I'm gone Has my soul been called upon by rough sea? A light is opening near Blurring my vision My breath thins Gasping Once lived a transcendental life But poisoned by seaweed Slowly falling into a slumped That will not awaken me

A Seaweed Potion
Stricken with a disease at sea One antidote can't cure Fallen Upon this cold wooden deck Shivering As the ship faces strong winds Knowing my time on earth will end Barricaded away from the crew No one will talk for months After I'm gone Has my soul been called upon by rough sea? A light is opening near Blurring my vision My breath thins Gasping Once lived a transcendental life But poisoned by seaweed Slowly falling into a slumped That will not awaken me
