The Rise And Fall Of Helios Lyrics

Ivan Campo The Rise And Fall Of Helios

[Intro]
Helios

[Verse 1]
Up-anchor and onwards
The waters we fare
The wonderless deckhand
A breath of sea air

We buffet the waves so free
All night long
From Patmos, [?], through [?], to Rhodes
Merchants were plundered
Caught amid ships we froze
Steady as she goes

[Bridge]
I saw you standing so tall

[Chorus]
Sun god

[Verse 2]
A prayer at the altar
For safe voyage at sea
Poseidon almighty
Did I offend thee?
Send heaven-sent clemency
All night long

A bitter wind shifted
The temple she rose
A fair-weather sailor
He quakes in the hold
Seven white horses and me

[Bridge]
We saw you buckle and fall

[Chorus]
Sun god

[Outro]
Sun god
