Sea Lords
Unsilent Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

White blades
Of waves
For us
It's chance
For you it's
A lonely grave

We are
The one's
Whose black-flagged ship
Toss a challenge to a cruel-hearted no-holds-barred storms
Our will
can't bend
It is like steel
It doesn't fear the breath of angry northern winds

Lightings cut into parts
Black womb of irate skies
And free the scourge of storm
The scourge of rebel no-holds-barred storm

There are no doubts
And no regrets
We made a choice and it gave us a lucky chance
It's better to
Be buried in a sea
Than be a shore loafer, who has sowed wild oats on the ground for years

Lightings cut into parts
Black womb of irate skies




And free the scourge of storm
The scourge of no-holds-barred, cruel-hearted rebel storms

Overall Meaning

In the lyrics of Unsilent's song Sea Lords, the band talks about embracing the life of a pirate- a life that is full of adventure and danger, but also one that does not succumb to the wrath of nature. The lyrics suggest that while the stormy sea may be deadly for others, it is an opportunity for the pirates to thrive. The opening lines "White blades, Of waves, For us, It's chance, For you it's, A lonely grave" signify the sea as a powerful entity that can either give life or take it away. While the sea may be a source of danger and death for others, it offers opportunities for the pirate's ship to sail and have adventures, which shows the valor of the pirates.


The lyrics go on to describe the strength of the pirates- their will, which is solid as steel, and their lack of fear against the northern winds. Unsilent compares the pirates to the storm, which is equally powerful and unrelenting- reinforced by the lines "The scourge of rebel no-holds-barred storm". The lyrics assert that the pirates' choice to lead a life at sea is not something they regret, as being a shore loafer is not something they aspire to be. They accept that their life at sea may be harsh but ultimately they would rather die at sea than live a life of mildness and monotony on shore.


Overall, the song is a commendation of the lifestyle of pirates, and how the sea and its storms are not things to be feared but to be embraced.
