A / Adesa / Blood upon the Baltimore
Across the sea, like spume upon the shore Violence lapped around the Baltimore Claiming lives, one by one Leaving only blood and mystery.
There’s blood upon the Baltimore, and precious little else The lone survivor, a gibbering wretch…
Alone she stands, see the light in her eyes A fevered veil behind which she hides What horrors lurk within the dark of her mind? What demons let her live and stole all other life?
There’s blood upon the Baltimore, there’s madness in the waters This fell brig casts a shadow on our harbour The lashing rain castigates us for a week, For there’s blood upon the Baltimore…
“Strap the lunatic to the mainmast; For cursed is this witch!” – Father decrees to exorcise these demons With tar and burning pitch. The flames illuminate the sky And her screams do scar my mind The stricken wreck of flesh and timber Returns each time I close my eyes… …every time I close my eyes..
