Grimgotts - Shanghai lyrics

It was a warm night, I went for a drink They came right up to me, they sensed my fear This could not end well, I had to escape And to my soul, Shanghai! Then one he said to me ‘I’ll buy you a drink’ Another lent in and said not to fear Here starts my journey, a tale of deceit And to my soul, Shanghai! Gagged and bound, I made no sound I’ve set sail for hell, farewell! My soul belongs to me Along with all my dreams You’ll never break me! Never take me! These are golden years I’ll die before I’m free A slave I am to be You’ll never break me! Never take me! Set me free! A blow it caught me, I fell to my feet The men were laughing, they bound and gagged me And then chucked me on board of their ship… And to my soul, Shanghai! Gagged and bound, I made no sound I’ve set sail for hell, farewell! My soul belongs to me Along with all my dreams You’ll never break me! Never take me! These are golden years I’ll die before I’m free A slave I am to be You’ll never break me! Never take me! Set me free! And to my soul, Shanghai!
