Sailors of the Burning Tide - Pirate Metal - Ver 1

⚔️ “Sailors of the Burning Tide” ⚔️

Heavy / Melodic / Folk Metal

Verse I

Raise the lantern, brothers, the night is calling loud,
Salt and rum upon our tongues, no kings to make us bow.
Silver moons on shattered waves, we chase the roaring storm,
For every oath we ever swore was born from fire and war.

Pre-Chorus

And the winds cry out our names across the endless blue,
We are shadows made of thunder — wild, unbroken, true.

Chorus

We are the sailors of the burning tide,
Drunk on freedom, storms, and fury we ride.
Gold in our pockets, fire in our veins,
And a lover in each harbor who remembers our names.
Raise your tankards — let the oceans hear our roar!
We live for plunder… and we’ll die wanting more!

Verse II

Through cannon fire and shattered decks, the Black Flag dances high,
Every port a whispered sin, each kiss a sweet goodbye.
We carve our stories on the world with iron, steel, and flame,
And leave behind a trail of ghosts who sing our blood-soaked name.

Pre-Chorus

For the sea became our kingdom, and no kingdom ever tamed
Those who sell their souls to thunder — and feel no hint of shame.

Chorus

We are the sailors of the burning tide,
Drunk on freedom, storms, and fury we ride.
Gold in our pockets, fire in our veins,
And a lover in each harbor who remembers our names.
Raise your tankards — let the oceans hear our roar!
We live for plunder… and we’ll die wanting more!

Bridge (Folk-Style Melody with Drums)

Braid the ropes, the winds are rising,
Play the fiddle strong and loud!
Let the mermaids keep their secrets —
We are men of sea and shroud!
From Tortuga to the Northlands,
Through the mist and through the flame,
If tomorrow steals our heartbeat,
Let the songs preserve our name!

Final Chorus (Extended)

We are the sailors of the burning tide,
Drunk on chaos, stars, and madness we ride!
Treasures stolen, hearts we leave behind —
For no chain of earth can hold a pirate’s mind.
Raise the anchor — hear the heavens crack and roar!
We feast with death… and drink forevermore!
