Glaucus Lyrics by Narwhale

Narwhale

2017

After seven weeks of sailing
Our hopes began to fade out
Famine was fastly spreading
And barrels were drying
A starving bird dived in nothingness
And nothing he brought out
Motionless, the sea was calm
Lifeless, no trace of life
The heat was far beyond all bearing
Every breath of wind, dying out
Fortune weren’t coming
A desert growing before our eyes
The crew began to fret
They wanted to spit their fire out
Roaring, howling, sharping knives
Their eyes were skinned by light
The sea was clear to see beneath
The water seemed so transparent
That everything became so evident
A presence was, personified through the glass
His deep blue eyes, from the profound of the sea
And a human form, so similar to a fish
Glaucus
Heavy are the locks of his hair
Wet are the curls of his beard
Pale skin like the shroud of the dead
He was lying down on his bed
A fish tail bent back to the waist
The arms strong of battling the waves
The breast covered in seaweed and moss
Strange herald of a certain loss
Dark prophecy
Of the obscure art
Of a chosen one
