Silver glimmer, stretching to the midgnight sky
Hear the crying men, relinquishing to die
Bodies floating, no longer make a sound
Only spoils of war echo all around

Battle royal
Battle royal as the ships go down, go down
Battle royal
Battle royal as the ships go down, go down

It's all over now for the hand that never bled
Those young lives who fought the sea instead
See the seagull flying oh so high
It's now our turn to fly

Battle royal
Battle royal as the ships go down, go down
Battle royal
Battle royal as the ships go down, go down
My turn to fly
