3 Inches Of Blood - Isle Of Eternal Despair (upon The Boiling Sea Iii) lyrics

Kiss the sand, praising the dry land he has found Everywhere on the shore there's treasure all around Bury deep the horded loot far down below No man or god will ever take away the plunder He will find a cave to hide away the fold Doomed to a desert isle All of the riches in his hands No living thing around But he will never leave the cave Alone with bounty gold Something compels him to stay Heaven or Hell, time will tell The captain thinks what will come of this If this is the end, the gold must die with me Delving underground, to his dismay The captain finds a curse The isle of eternal despair, to spend eternity alone The isle of eternal despair, with gold beyond his dreams What a sight that's sitting right before his eyes Ancient spoils of the pirates of the past Skeletons are sheathed in gold by candlelight Hunger sets but he will guard the j**els forever Now he's punished by the gods Forever pondering his greed But he's doomed to eternal life As a golden skeleton The isle of eternal despair, doomed as his flesh beings to rot The isle of eternal despair, knowing he'll never really die As he decays into living, golden bones Eyes open watching for the rest of his life
