[Verse 1]
Out on the ocean of life
“Ignorance is the parent of fear”
As we sail into strife
The wail draws near

[Bridge]
“Towards thee I roll”
(Pride as my toll)
We set sail….

[Chorus]
(Never fail? All hail)
The all-destroying wail
As we partake
(For hate’s sake)

[Bridge]
To the last
(I grapple with thee)
Till I’m past
(Flail… the wail’s tale)
Wail (wail, wail)

[Verse 2]
Just take a look and see the sea
“All my means are sane”
My motive and objective — mad
Brain… lost what little I had

[Bridge]
“Towards thee I roll”
(Pride as my toll)
We set sail….

[Chorus]
(Surely fail. All hail)
The all-destroying wail
As we partake
(For hate’s sake)

[Bridge]
“Towards thee I roll”
(Pride as my toll)
We set sail….

[Chorus 2]
(Sadly fail. Must hail)
The all-destroying wail
As we partake
(For hate’s sake)
Wail!

[Outro]
(Flail… the wail’s tale)
Wail (wail, wail)
To the last
(I grapple with thee)
No longer can I be
All has past
(Flail… the wail’s tale)
Wail (wail, wail)
