The Heart of the Sea Songtext
von Flogging Molly

Sticks and stones are for you clam living bones
Salt and water melt my skin
So don′t set sail, you'll end up in the belly of a whale
No swallow saint will mark your grave

Every light of every day
It′s a way into decay

But I won't cry myself to sleep
'Cause my soul no longer weeps
But my body lies in the heart of the sea

Darkness breaks and with her the morning wakes
She marks us weary as we drown
Show no remorse, as you will make a beautiful corpse
Next to the one you love the most

Every light of every day
It′s a way into decay
Don′t fornicate with the one you love to hate
You'll wind up dead before she vows


But I won′t cry myself to sleep
'Cause my soul no longer weeps
While my body lies in the heart of the sea

Another useless confrontation
Leaves 88 lost constellations
Now the end appears
And my eyes are filled with fear

I am blind, I am blind, dig me up before I die
Don′t wanna end up in the heart of the sea, yeah
Oh, I am blind, I am blind, dig me up before I die
I don't wanna end up in the heart of the sea

Now the lesson is lesson is learnt
Don′t swim out too far from your berth
Walking's better, even through defeat

But I won't cry myself to sleep
′Cause my soul no longer weeps
While my body lies in the heart

I won′t cry myself to sleep
'Cause my soul no longer weeps
While my body lies in the heart of the sea, yeah
Heart of the sea
