We were only doing what the captain said | |
We all went down with the ship | |
The cause left splintered only thing I had | |
We all went down with the ship | |
The captain calls his pirates and the virgin assassins | |
But told he would reach paradise | |
Down is an army with following orders | |
But see it in his hellous eyes | |
It pulled out the monsters like deep in the mind | |
We all went down with the ship | |
The bayonets rusted on the fiery line | |
We all went down with the ship | |
I heard all the men who were sent to the trenches | |
And those beyond my scrapes | |
Powers of the british and we go to war | |
In charge of the light brigade | |
And it’s a long long way down | |
To the bed of the sea | |
Oh I will sink until she | |
She covers me | |
We’ll suffer for another man’s falling | |
Blindsided by an ego that can’t stop | |
We sink to the bottom to rise to the top and say | |
We all fall under the spell of the charmer | |
Devil’s tongue from the shepherd to his flock | |
We sink to the bottom to rise to the top and say | |
I never would’ve taken what the general desired | |
We all went down with the ship | |
In the land of the evil and the noble empire | |
We all went down with the ship | |
The terrible persuasion of the master’s hand | |
Shadowed in the ark of his rule | |
This history lesson takes a measure of sand | |
As the tricks in his thoughts have returned | |
And it’s a long long way down | |
To the bed of the sea | |
Oh I will sink until she | |
She covers me | |
We’ll suffer for another man’s falling | |
Blindsided by an ego that can’t stop | |
We sink to the bottom to rise to the top and say | |
We all fall under the spell of the charmer | |
Devil’s tongue from the shepherd to his flock | |
We sink to the bottom to rise to the top and say | |

We were doing what the captain said | |
We went down, we went down as she went down with the ship |
We were only doing what the captain said | |
We all went down with the ship | |
The cause left splintered only thing I had | |
We all went down with the ship | |
The captain calls his pirates and the virgin assassins | |

We all went down with the ship | |
I heard all the men who were sent to the trenches | |
And those beyond my scrapes | |
Powers of the british and we go to war | |
In charge of the light brigade | |
And it' s a long long way down | |
To the bed of the sea | |
Oh I will sink until she | |
She covers me | |
We' ll suffer for another man' s falling | |
Blindsided by an ego that can' t stop | |
We sink to the bottom to rise to the top and say | |
We all fall under the spell of the charmer | |
Devil' s tongue from the shepherd to his flock | |
We sink to the bottom to rise to the top and say | |
I never would' ve taken what the general desired | |
