Murmaider II: The Water God
The gods watch over you
And they consider what you've done
And they consider what you've done
But now you're hidden away
To get your strength
Deep in a cave
Your power has regained
To get your strength
Deep in a cave
Your power has regained
And your legacy is spread
To the deepest of the sea
The one that brought them vengeance
That fights for his belief
To the deepest of the sea
The one that brought them vengeance
That fights for his belief
He can swim through matter
He has poisoned teeth
His tentacles have murdered
His scream can kill the weak
He has poisoned teeth
His tentacles have murdered
His scream can kill the weak
He's got explosives CHECK!
Corrosives CHECK!
A master at the art of murder
Murmaids weep the blacked tears
Corrosives CHECK!
A master at the art of murder
Murmaids weep the blacked tears
So they swim to the sunken ship
Invited by a soul who bleeds from the lips
This prophet who beckons you wades in the dark
Speaks an ancient language this language is of sharks
Invited by a soul who bleeds from the lips
This prophet who beckons you wades in the dark
Speaks an ancient language this language is of sharks
He says you're the one that I decree
The one who can save us and set us free
You've gained the power of a deity
You have the strength to wake us from this sleep
The one who can save us and set us free
You've gained the power of a deity
You have the strength to wake us from this sleep
You swim on!
Swim on!
And so you swim on!
Swim on!
Keep swimming now!
Swim on!
And so you swim on!
Swim on!
Keep swimming now!
And the prophet gives to you this warning
If this path is chosen you'll be met with strife
For you'll be seen as an enemy of the sacred
If this path is chosen you'll be met with strife
For you'll be seen as an enemy of the sacred
And the gods with curse you
For the rest of your life
And you say
For the rest of your life
And you say
I get by just fine. CHECK!
I've known much worse life. CHECK!
I've conquered dark times. CHECK!
They should fear my mind. CHECK!
I've known much worse life. CHECK!
I've conquered dark times. CHECK!
They should fear my mind. CHECK!
So now you go and go
And swim into the cold
And harness the strength
Because one day you may be called
To meet the mighty gods
Deep within the ocean
And if you're not prepared
Your soul will not be spared
And swim into the cold
And harness the strength
Because one day you may be called
To meet the mighty gods
Deep within the ocean
And if you're not prepared
Your soul will not be spared
Your eyes have gone black
You'll never look back
You'll never stop swimming
You'll always be tracked
You'll never look back
You'll never stop swimming
You'll always be tracked
Your life has transformed
Your power has grown
Your minions stretch for leagues
Before a bloody coral throne
Your power has grown
Your minions stretch for leagues
Before a bloody coral throne
A crown of murdered foes
Will sit above your head
Those that wish to challenge you
Will wish that they were dead
Will sit above your head
Those that wish to challenge you
Will wish that they were dead
The beasts of the sea will collect and submit
Pray for your forgiveness and live as you permit.
Pray for your forgiveness and live as you permit.
And You'll say:
I AM THE WATER GOD
You will BOW to the WATER GOD
You will LIVE for the WATER GOD
And you will DIE for the WATER GOD
You will LIVE for the WATER GOD
And you will DIE for the WATER GOD
Live for the WATER GOD
Die for the WATER GOD
Die for the WATER GOD
And the deities loom nearer
They will find you...
They will find you...
