Seven Seas
The Poodles Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I hear the distant cries and
Bring me that new horizon
This time I make my move
This time I must be true
No lies will twist my mind
I won't give it up, give it up
I want you to know...
A black flag is rising
Oh the devil's reaching for my soul.
I set my sails in newborn skies
I hear the distant cries and
Bring me that new horizon
Spread your wings and learn to fly
Don't let your sorrow blind you
Who knows what we will find
Don't give it up, give it up
The sweet trade of piracy
We sail the seven seas
Eight bells the toll for me
Don't give it up, give it up
I want you to know...
A black flag is rising
Oh the devil's reaching for my soul.
I set my sails in newborn skies
I hear the distant cries and
Bring me that new horizon
Spread your wings and learn to fly
Don't let your sorrow blind you
Who knows what we will find
Don't give it up, give it up
I want you to know, that you're not alone
Sailing on your darkest water
I set my sails in newborn skies
I hear the distant cries and
Bring me that new horizon
Spread your wings and learn to fly
Don't let your sorrow blind you
Who knows what we will find
I set my sails in newborn skies
I hear the distant cries and
Who knows what we will find
Don't give it up, give it up

This is a confusing video, but seeing Peter Stormare anywhere is the awesomest of awesome. The song sounds very simple, but it's very catchy. Guess I have to buy the whole discography.
