Below the Sun - AHAB

I turn my body from the sun

To follow the fading phantom into the deep

All collapsed

And the great shroud of the sea

Rolled on as it rolled thousands of years ago

Your malice is my vengeance

Pull me, into deep

My body — drowned

But my hate is immortal

Dark and silent

Deeper, darker

Below the surface

Below the sun

Ghost of the sea

I am God’s assassin

My lifeless eyes

My tortured soul

I grin at the ocean, thou grinning whale

Dark and silent… deep

My body — drowned

But my hate is immortal

Ghost of the sea

I am God’s assassin

My lifeless eyes

Deep
