The Stoker

lyrics

Ask forgiveness from the coal we've been feeding to this fiery hole / stay afloat above the ocean floor / it's not much but it's all mine / as my sweat will stand the test of time / watch it roll back to the shore / lay my head in the arms of Argus / for I can't see anymore / stain my flesh with the dust of Hades / so I can live evermore / this cursed ship is so obscene / gonna douse it all in kerosene / we're gonna go / fall to the floor / praising all the ancestors who died young while the ocean stirs up a commode / cleansing it's soul / place my hands on the eyes of Argus / burn my flesh to the bone / place my feet on the grounds of Hades / for I've been welcomed home / place my ear to the mouth of Argus / the stars won't speak anymore / take my seat in the house of Hades / where I shall serve nevermore.
