The Shellback Lyrics


Born on the coast, raised by the sea

Dreaming of tidals and reefs

Adventurous call freedom to breathe

Straight right on the high seas

Stories collecting, resisting the fear

Discovering what is behind

A fire inside revealing his fate

The secrets blocked by the mind

The sea was calling loud and clear

The dice has fallen, deciding his fate of a seer

The shellback is telling stories untold

Of islands and reefs, silver and gold

Revealing secrets that future might hold

Conspiracies, murder and sin

At the black hand inn

Back to the grove, swinging his axe

Working straight on the shack

Leading him back to where he belongs

Fate´s undoubted tracks

The sea was calling loud and clear

The dice has fallen, deciding his fate of a seer

The shellback is telling stories untold

Of islands and reefs, silver and gold

Revealing secrets that future might hold

Conspiracies, murder and sin

At the black hand inn
