Survival of the Quickest - The Privateer

Make haste for the ship

Because for now imaginary crewmen

Turned real somehow

Reeling in haste to my left

And my right brickbats are passing

Bringigng demise

Watch our for a crewman

Could shout as wicked arrows

Swiftly brought him down

The hunt is on the early bliss

Not even glimpses left behind

For now it had come to this

Only the quickest will survive

Can’t you see

The walls are breaking?

We have come to realise

Someone before us still resides

We are hunted by the tribes

All the time i’ve wondered

How it could be

Untouched by aging but faulted indeed

Their fountain of youth

Now lies within me

Seeing now their treasure might be

A prolonged life

You must pay with your mind

And we fools have just stepped in line

Disgustingly linked

To the island we found

A shadow out of time

Still alive to symbolize

Dimensions of impudence

Wither in denial

It’s trying to bind us since we’re ashore

Nothing left of foreign beauty

We came to adore

Nothing left of treasure hunting duty

The hunt is on the early bliss

Not even glimpses left behind

For now it had come to this

Only the quickest will survive

Can’t you see

The walls are breaking?

We have come to realise

Someone before us still resides

We are hunted by the tribes
