3 Inches Of Blood - Isle Of Eternal Despair (Upon The Boiling Sea Iii) lyrics
rate meKiss the sand, praising a dry land he has found<br />
Everywhere on shore there's treasure all around<br />
Bury deep the horded loot far down below<br />
No man or god will ever take away your plunder<br />
<br />
He will find a cave to hide away the gold<br />
Doomed to a desert isle<br />
All of the riches in his hands<br />
No living thing around<br />
But he will never leave the cave<br />
Alone with bounty gold<br />
Something compels him to stay<br />
Heaven or Hell, time will tell<br />
<br />
The captain thinks what will come of this<br />
If this is the end, the gold must die with me<br />
Delving underground, to his dismay<br />
The captain finds a curse<br />
<br />
The isle of eternal despair, spend eternity alone<br />
The isle of eternal despair, with gold beyond his dreams<br />
<br />
What a sight that's sitting right before his eyes<br />
Ancient spoils of the pirates of the past<br />
Skeletons are sheathed in gold by candlelight<br />
Hunger sets but he will guard the jewels forever<br />
<br />
Now he's punished by the gods<br />
Forever pondering his greed<br />
But he's doomed to eternal life<br />
As a golden skeleton<br />
<br />
The isle of eternal despair, doomed as his flesh beings to rot<br />
The isle of eternal despair, knowing he'll never really die<br />
<br />
As he decays into living, golden bones<br />
Eyes open watching for the rest of his life
