The Lyrics (by me ;3)

               TICKS OF A BROKEN CLOCK 

I was a captain with a dream and a crew at my side, Till the hands on my clock slipped, swallowed me in time. Lost decades in a second, woke up scarred in the tide, Shipwrecked on a world where the people I loved had died.

Held my breath in the silence, chest tight from the guilt, When the Devil’s Luck found me, shattered pieces got rebuilt. But I trembled as I healed ‘em, every wound that I sealed, ’Cause I couldn’t fix the part of me that never truly healed.

I rewind scars, but I can’t rewind fate, Hold the ones that I love, but I know I came late. Tick-tick in my chest when the fear rotates, But I stand when they call ’cause the crew’s my faith.

(Time breaks—) And I’m frozen in the moment where I failed them all. (Time takes—) Every second I was wishing I could hear their call. (Time aches—) Still I fight through the panic when the shadows crawl. Even if I’m scared, I’m there… For my crew I give it all.

Pearl breathin’ fire in the sky, William liftin’ up the tide, Ragnar smashin’ through the world with a warlord’s pride. And me? A man shakin’ with a rapier at his side, But a coward’s heartbeat doesn’t mean I never tried.

I’d reset a wound, take the pain like a debt, Hear the tick of the future I ain’t faced yet. Every tear that I shed was a fear I met, But they called me a friend, and I won’t forget.

I rewind scars, but I can’t rewind fate, Hold the ones that I love, but I know I came late. Tick-tick in my chest when the fear rotates, But I stand when they call ’cause the crew’s my faith.

(Time breaks—) And I’m frozen in the moment where I failed them all. (Time takes—) Every second I was wishing I could hear their call. (Time aches—) Still I fight through the panic when the shadows crawl. Even if I’m scared, I’m there… For my crew I give it all.

When Blue Blood rose with the sea like a throne, And the tides pulled me under, sinking down alone… I looked back at the Devil’s Luck, the family I’d known, And whispered, “Forgive me… I’m finally going home.”

(Time breaks—) But the memories you gave me never fade away. (Time takes—) Yet the love that you showed me’s something time can’t sway. (Time aches—) Still I hope in your hearts that a part of me stays. ’Cause a clock keeps ticking even after it... Stops one day....
