That's where I'll wait,
Beyond the pale blue sea,Where the stars shine bright
And the earth smells sweet.
We'll leave these terrors behind,
These polluted shores and barren lands,
The rivulets of blood, the smoke in the trees,
And the ravens' broods that screech.
Across these murky waters,
There, where the sky meets the sand,
That's where they said heaven will be,
Where the hearths are warm and hearts still clean.
The sirens pierce the air urgently,
My barrel's drenched with sweat,
But I forge on, a gladiator incarnate,
I fight for freedom, I fight for our dream.
Bliss, utter eternal bliss awaits,
That's what they whispered in my ears,
That's why I ululate and charge into battle,
That's why I silence the screams.
I growl like the hounds of hell,
I am the devil incarnate,
I slash and tear and rend them to pieces,
For they stand 'tween you and me!
Their bones crunch under my feet,
Their agonies echoing in my ears,
But my feet march on, regardless,
'Tis the call of the sea.
I'll wash off my sins in its briny depths,
And this stench of death still lingering,
I'll cast off these guns and ropes and chains,
For the future has no need for these.
Here my love! A new life beckons,
Beyond this pale blue sea,
Which runs crimson with the blood of innocents,
That I took for you and me!
