Crystal Eyes - Adrian Blackwood lyrics

1660, a child was born, who grew up to be a man of greed and scorn Born a noble, but denied his legacy, young Adrian began a life of piracy Possessed with a hunger for gold crowns, and bloodlust in a heart so cold All ships that he met went down to the bottom, released from gold His dark reputation was growing, and so did the prize on his head The streams of blood and gold were flowing, and most rulers wanted him dead [Pre Chorus] Blinded by his greed he made a name in history Great tall ships and many men met their destiny Oh, but he could not see how his end would be, to hang from a tree for his piracy [Chorus] And so the legend was born about the king of the seven seas Adrian Blackwood was his name And still no one has found the treasure from the wild plundering times, when the seven seas were ruled by gunpowder, blood and gold His downfall was caused by treason, with kings gold his crew were bought Jealousy and greed were the reasons when Blackwood the Cruel was caught [Pre Chorus] [Chorus] [Solo Both, Dahl, Both] [Chorus]
