Heave ho! For the world is ending, Heave ho! Tell me why you mourn, Heave ho! The accursed blessing, Children of night, lost in the eye of the storm Close my eyes, change my mind, Pretend my ship's not sinking Hear their screams, just a dream Pretend I hear them singing With heart and anchor heavy, Can't carry all the weight I'm trying to believe it's not too late, Heave ho! For the world is ending, Heave ho! Tell me why you mourn, Heave ho! The accursed blessing, Children of night, lost in the eye of the storm Lost in the eye of the storm Blissful sleep, leave me be For just a little longer Feel no pain, wind nor rain And the truth won't make me stronger With heart and anchor heavy, Can't carry all the weight Forever I've been trying to escape Heave ho! For the world is ending, Heave ho! Tell me why you mourn, Heave ho! The accursed blessing, Children of night, lost in the eye of the storm It's the clearest of weather, if you don't look around How many tears altogether till we've built the ocean where we drown? Heave ho! For the world is ending, Heave ho! Tell me why you mourn, Heave ho! This accursed blessing, Children of night, lost in the eye of the storm Heave ho! Heave ho! Lost in the eye of the storm Heave ho! Lost in the eye of the storm
