lyrics

we are original
owe allegiance to no one
fly a flag of our own
full of bullet holes and tattered
the deck is bloodstained and splintered
with ropes around the main

we are the ministers
of the innocent prisoners
leaving fools in our wake
and all the ones who knew better
and all the ones who withered
and faded away

the captains of the black horizon
lean into the wind and lightning
on the stormy seas to someday

the ports of the helpless
light their fires for us
and we roll into the bay
shooting off cannons and laughing
the crew pumping fists for their captains
crows atop the main

(chorus)

do what you will boys
take what you want boys
leave nothing my boys
but the cold bare bones
and the rising sun
and the laughter when we run

we are original
owe allegiance to no one
dance on the edge of the sword
walking above the fire
'cause daredevils will inspire
those holding to the main

(chorus)
