Under the Crossed Bones Songtext
von VII Gates

Caught as a thief and sold as a slave
Nearly his life was to end
But his knowledge helped him
Who sold to the right woman
The governor′s nightmare, queen of the sea
Wanted dead or alive
One an oath by blood
Who searched for the rich and bright

Kill or die, that's the law of the sea
No one will step aside
Take, not give, this life is all to me
Only cowards will try to hide


Under the crossbow lies
What greedy men dying for
Under the crossbow lies
Sixty-seven feet above the shore
Under the crossbow lies
A symbol of the crimes
Under the crossbow lies
Just try to interpret the rhyme

The scalp of her father and a piece of his ship
The third part in her enemy′s hand
Together would show the way to the promised land
Right like the storm across the ocean in the south
A hunt between a spree and death and time
Well, who will reach first
Reach the shore with the golden sand

Betray and lie, don't trust what you see
They can also be allies
Raise the sword, not close to the end
'Cause tomorrow′s master

Under the crossbow lies
What greedy men dying for
Under the crossbow lies
Sixty-seven feet above the shore
Under the crossbow lies
A symbol of the crimes
Under the crossbow lies
Just try to interpret the rhyme


Under the crossbow lies
What greedy men dying for
Under the crossbow lies
Sixty-seven feet above the shore
Under the crossbow lies
A symbol of the crimes
Under the crossbow lies
Just try to interpret the rhyme

Under the crossbow lies
What greedy men dying for
Under the crossbow lies
Sixty-seven feet above the shore
Under the crossbow lies
A symbol of the crimes
Under the crossbow lies
Just try to interpret the rhyme
