THE BLACK FREIGHTER 
Lyrics by Bill Cerise-Bullock 

VERSE 1 
Tied to the mast, marked with the blade 
All of the lives that you thought you could save 
Will sing from the depths that it all ends the same nonetheless 

Dig up the corpses of lovers and friends 
Lash them together to chase your revenge 
And strike at the sea with the bones of the one you loved best 
 [bad word] 
Bourne upon a tide of blood, we [bad word] towards the shore 
We leave the sea to crawl upon all fours 
So tie the noose around your neck, it fits you like a glove 
There's a million crimes aboard this ship 
And the worst were done for love 

VERSE 2 
So draw the blade that can never be sheathed 
Once your beloved, now just the bereaved 
But you prop up the bodies and [bad word] off your sleeves without guilt 

Spend your whole life on perfecting the prize 
But late in the night you can still hear the cries 
Of the corpses amongst the foundations of all that you've built 
 [bad word] 
Bourne upon a tide of blood, we [bad word] towards the shore 
We leave the sea to crawl upon all fours 
So tie the noose around your neck, it fits you like a glove 
There's a million crimes aboard this ship 
And the worst were done for love 

BRIDGE 
You have been touched by the horror, and now 
There is no depth of the damned that could sate your appetite 
Out past the breakers they're waiting, you hear them wail in the night; 
"CLIMB ABOARD THE BLACK FREIGHTER!!!" (x3) 
CLIMB ABOARD!!! 

OUTRO [bad word] 
Born upon a sea of blood, we never reach the shore 
Our best intentions crawl upon all fours 
So catch the noose that's tossed to you and join the crew above 
There's a million crimes aboard this ship, 
But the worst were done for love 
Done for love! 
All for love! 
All for love! 
ALL ABOARD THE BLACK FREIGHTER!!! 
ALL ABOARD THE BLACK FREIGHTER!!! 
CLIMB ABOARD THE BLACK FREIGHTER!!! 
CLIMB ABOARD!!!
