[Chorus 1]
N.C.
Hold on! Hold on, my heart!
N.C.
You once were full, and sang of grace!
N.C.
Hold on!
[Verse 1]
One Emtaste of the sound from the Sirens in the water
And I'm thinking, "EmI should get out this sharpest sword and suit of armor,"
So I can be F#dimready to strike. But I Empause, one more time.
One last D#dimtaste of the sound, then I'll Emcut these Sirens down.
But as they D#dimsang, I forgot. They were Emdeath so I brought
Them my F#dimheart to be filled, and EmI followed them.
[Verse 2]
No Emtrace could I find of any joy the Sirens promised.
They had found a Emway with the light: turned what's good and should be wanted
Into what is F#dimhighest above all deEmsires and loves,
'Till my D#dimheart would obey whatever it Emwants, whatever it takes
To feel aD#dimlive and set free, only Embound to the sea,
Where the F#dimSirens are leading me Emon.
[Chorus 2]
EmHold on! GHold on, my Cheart!
You once were Gfull, and sang of Emgrace!
Hold on! GHold on, my Cheart!
You've tasted Gjoy that's more than Emthis. (2x)
Hold Gon!

One taste of the sound from the Sirens in the water

And I'm thinking, "I should get out this sharpest sword and suit of armor,"

So I can be ready to strike. But I pause, one more time.

To feel alive and set free, only bound to the sea,
