| [00:20.40] | The boy child is locked in the fisherman's yard |
| [00:25.04] | There's a bloodless moon where the oceans die |
| [00:29.40] | A shoal of night stars hang fire in the nets |
| [00:33.05] | And the chaos of cages where the crayfish lie |
| [00:38.65] | Where is the fisherman, where is the goat |
| [00:43.18] | Where is the keeper in his carrion coat |
| [00:46.92] | Eclipse on the moon when the dark bird flies |
| [00:52.35] | Where is the child with his father's eyes |
| [00:56.69] | |
| [01:06.19] | He's the king of the ninth world |
| [01:10.60] | The twisted son of the fog bells' toll |
| [01:13.71] | In each and every lobster cage, a tortured human soul |
| [01:24.02] | These are the souls of the broken factories |
| [01:28.65] | The subject slaves of the broken crown |
| [01:33.32] | The dead accounting of old guilty promises |
| [01:37.86] | These are the souls of the broken town |
| [01:43.60] | These are the soul cages |
| [01:48.08] | These are the soul cages |
| [01:52.42] | These are the soul cages |
| [01:57.19] | These are the soul cages |
| [02:01.16] | |
| [02:19.07] | 'I have a wager,' the brave child spoke “ |
| [02:23.33] | The fisherman laughed though disturbed at the joke |
| [02:27.46] | 'You will drink what I drink |
| [02:29.34] | But you must equal me |
| [02:31.49] | And if the drink leaves me standing |
| [02:34.22] | A soul shall go free' |
| [02:36.77] | 'I have here a cask of most magical wine |
| [02:41.28] | A vintage that blessed every ship in the line |
| [02:45.23] | It's wrung from the blood of the sailors who died |
| [02:50.02] | Young white bodies adrift in the tide' |
| [02:54.87] | 'And what's in it for me, my pretty young thing? |
| [02:59.29] | Why should I whistle when the caged bird sings? |
| [03:03.38] | If you lose a wager with the king of the sea |
| [03:07.88] | You'll spend the rest of forever in the cage with me' |
| [03:14.40] | These are the soul cages |
| [03:18.38] | These are the soul cages |
| [03:23.27] | These are the soul cages |
| [03:27.92] | These are the soul cages |
| [03:31.19] | A body lies open in the fisherman's yard like |
| [03:36.24] | The side of a ship where the iceberg rips |
| [03:40.27] | One less soul in the soul cages |
| [03:45.06] | One last curse on the fisherman's lips |
| [03:50.67] | These are the soul cages |
| [03:55.01] | These are the soul cages |
| [03:59.53] | These are the soul cages |
| [04:04.12] | These are the soul cages |
| [04:08.98] | These are the soul cages |
| [04:13.53] | These are the soul cages |
| [04:18.53] | And he dreamed of a ship on the sea |
| [04:23.04] | It would carry his father and he |
| [04:27.52] | To a place they could never be found |
| [04:32.20] | To a place far away from this town |
| [04:37.19] | A Newcastle ship with no coals |
| [04:41.20] | They would sail to the island of souls |
| [04:47.22] | |
| [05:08.72] | These are the soul cages |
| [05:17.79] | These are the soul cages |
