Too long have I been trapped, Upon this miserable ship, Where sickness and misery lies. My head aches, My heart breaks, With every moan I make, I see nothing here, But unhappiness and death. I want to crawl to my friends, But oh, How these chains bind me! Bind me..... The time of my demise is upon me now, I await death with open arms, For my misery may end! But no! A doctor comes to see me, In my miserable state. He works intently at the bullet lying in my chest, I scream once, Twice. The doctor keeps working, And I want to scream again, But I feel woozy.... I awaken to a bright day, My head pain-free and no injury upon my damaged chest, But I am still a miserable prisoner. I fear the worst is coming.
