Lyrics
Lo and behold the captain's struck by fear
Expression of fear as the captain faces a daunting situation
All hands on deck a storm astern us nears
Emergency call for all crew members due to an approaching storm
The raging waters our ship is covered by sea
Describing the ship being engulfed by turbulent waters
Will we survive the surge from beneath?
Questioning the survival chances against the surging sea
All's wet and freezing the waves are five storeys high
Depicting the harsh conditions with towering waves and wetness
Reef all the sails better struggle to save your lives
Advising to secure the sails as an attempt to save lives
The raging waters our ship is covered by sea
Reiteration of the ship being covered by raging waters
Will we survive the surge from beneath?
Raising the question again about surviving the surge
All is calm at the eye of the storm
Describing a calm moment within the storm's eye
The sea is black like glass
Depiction of a serene sea with a black, glassy surface
A few of us who are still alive
Noting the few survivors witnessing the wind intensifying
See the wind start picking up fast
Observing the acceleration of the wind's speed
A sailor is tied fast to the helm
Portrayal of a sailor bound to the helm, highlighting the danger
His predecessor died on his post
Mention of the previous sailor's death at his post
This vessel is now but a floating wreck
Declaring the ship as a wreck with no hope of return
It will never bring us back to the coast
Emphasizing the ship's inability to reach the coast again
The raging waters our ship is covered by sea
Reiteration of the ship being covered by raging waters
Will we survive the surge from beneath?
Repeating the question about surviving the surge from beneath
The devils triangle!
Introduction of the ominous "Devil's Triangle" as a symbol of danger
The devils triangle!
Reaffirming the presence of the threatening "Devil's Triangle"
