Beyond the ninth wave - Waylander

Beyond The Ninth Wave

My spirit snaps, despair engulfs

Like a bloody brooch, my shame is borne

When weakness called, I opened the door

Betraying all (that) I once held so dear

Honour denied, I still cannot believe

Banishment invoked, cast out to sea

Beyond the ninth wave

Cast adrift, exiled soul

Beyond the ninth wave

Stripped of honour, stripped of Clan

Broken lands, Macha betrayed

My Clan and my kin, they all bear my shame

I give up my life to the God of the sea

Mannanan Mc Lir my fate lies with thee

Depart on the tide (as) banishment beckons

Trice three years in torment I face

Darkest of days, stalking my stride

Resultant fall, all consuming pride

Great deeds, I now seek

Focus supreme

Redemption I crave

Mortality engaged
