While cannons firing towards
My vessel
The aroma of fresh gun powder
Fills the salty air
With a taste I shall remember
Sulking up energy
Knowing we have battle and bled
Throughout the night
Quenching our thirst
Countless bodies
Floating at sea
Damage is the flagship Lady Bella
No victory by far
As we continue engaging the enemy
The first mate is dead
Half of the crew is crippled
One last surge
Take us as prisoners
Or guide this lady ship
To safety
For I am captain
As my fate behest
While the seawaters of hope
Does not drown me
