First Song of the Siren

There is a boat

On the sea

And there's a man

Who's waiting for me

There is a boat

On the sea

And he's begging a desperate plea

And I've been

Singing to him gently

And I've been

Giving him what he needs

There is a boat

On the sea

That the waves are dragging to one knee

There is a boat

On the sea

And there's a man who's coming for me

And I've been

Singing to him sweetly

And I've been

Answering his plea

There is a boat

On the sea

That's sinking terribly

There is a boat

In the sea

And there's a man

Who's drowning for me

And I've been

Gazing at the debris

And I've been

Screaming like a banshee

There is a boat

In the sea

And there's a man

Who's dead because of me

And I've been

Singing hungrily

And I've been

Screeching helplessly

There is a boat

In the sea

And there's a carcass

Between it and me

And I've been

Watching it without sleep

And I've been

Driven to endlessly weep

There is a boat

In the sea

And there are vultures

Between it and me

There is a boat

In the sea

And there is no one

To hear my plea

And I've been

Starving for something

And I've been

Trapped here for eternity
