Two years spent before the mast[00:00:00]

And no one knows the secrets that we're hiding[00:00:02]

If word got loose you'd face the lash[00:00:05]

And thirteen loops would hold me fast and silent[00:00:10]

Things are not always as they seem to be[00:00:13]

Outside us devil got poor persephone but they can't take[00:00:22]

They can't take you from me they can't take you from me[00:00:30]

Can't take you from me can't take you from me[00:00:37]

Mr jones done made a mistake it's all business[00:00:46]

Worse thing than the watery grave with poor rictus[00:00:52]

I found and bound a barrel of grain in the hold listless[00:00:54]

So hollow half out of dismay frayed princess[00:00:57]

I guess I've gone soft on my age they call it instinct[00:00:58]

The rebels get the devil to pay her the cat hissing[00:01:01]

Gonna start I know I oughta send her to the brig[00:01:03]

But strongest not scared and still bothered with calm winds[00:01:05]

And all things aren't what they seem to be and[00:01:07]

Small walls separating earth from eden[00:01:09]

One rib did give eve a meaning[00:01:11]

And one snip might could keep a secret[00:01:13]

With the short hair there and a change of clothing[00:01:15]

Fit right in and work soak and oakum[00:01:17]

Four fortnights she'll annul with the opium[00:01:19]

I might slip by but for her and boatswain[00:01:22]

Two years spent before the mast[00:01:24]

And no one knows the secrets that we're hiding[00:01:26]

If word got loose you'd face the lash[00:01:29]

And thirteen loops would hold me fast and silent[00:01:34]

Things are not always as they seem to be[00:01:37]

Outside us devil got poor persephone[00:01:46]

But they can't take they can't take you from me[00:01:52]

Clip of her shears twist of her hair to the air handsomely[00:01:58]

'Til it floated down on the cloud[00:02:21]

Reflected on the glassy sea and the winds disappear[00:02:25]

Stripped almost bare bathe in a transfixed state[00:02:33]

And all things are what they seem to be[00:02:38]

She floated next to me just out of reach[00:02:43]

There is no knot so steadfast[00:02:48]

It won't go broke in the middle of monsoons[00:02:49]

You both don't show waiting watching[00:02:51]

With wet lips your clothes soaked through[00:02:53]

Blinded mind of the red sky and oxide clouds[00:02:55]

The injustice of feds made in wisconsin[00:02:57]

Blooms coupled up with the stem means there's no rain[00:02:59]

Once you poked a bridge against the bulkhead the world pitched[00:03:01]

Pulled to your sh*t with soft needs and the soap stone[00:03:04]

Mr jones is the poor soul who walked into a tempest[00:03:06]

And this time two poor fools[00:03:08]

Give them a whipping and head sail quirks quick lose[00:03:10]

The best men can end when the storm rolls through[00:03:12]

So we paid our keep for the sin of a reckless dream[00:03:14]

In the scene where secrets sleep[00:03:17]

Between me her the devil and the deep blue sea[00:03:19]

Two years spent before the mast[00:03:22]

And no one knows the secrets that we're hiding[00:03:24]

If word got loose you'd face the lash[00:03:27]

And thirteen loops would hold me fast and silent[00:03:32]

Things are not always as they seem to be outside us[00:03:36]

Devil got poor persephone but they can't take[00:03:47]

They can't take you from me[00:03:52]

They can't take you from me[00:03:55]

Can't take you from me can't take you from me[00:04:00]
