The Sea Keeps Its Secrets
by CJ Frei
Lyrics
Verse 1
From Spartan shores our triremes sailed
Beneath the crimson morning sky
The Sons of the Wolf stood at the bow
With bronze held high and fearless eyes
The sea was calm, the wind was fair
No warning carried on the breeze
Yet old men spoke in quiet tones...
"The sea keeps its secrets."
Pre-Chorus
Many have crossed these waters
Many were never seen again
The gods owe no man answers...
Chorus
The sea keeps its secrets
Buried far below
Kingdoms lost forever
Where only shadows know
We sail for Sparta
Though the waves may claim our names
The Sons of the Wolf stand fearless
For honor never fades
Verse 2
Broken spears and shattered shields
Rest where no man dares descend
Some say warriors guard the deep
Still defending fallen friends
Was it monsters?
Was it storms?
Or cities swallowed whole?
Only the endless waters
Know the final toll
Bridge
If we should fall beneath the tide
Let history remember this...
We did not turn our ships away.
We met the storm as Spartans.
Final Chorus
The sea keeps its secrets
Silent through the years
But courage leaves an echo
Louder than our fears
Though the waves may hide our bones
And wash away our scars
The Sons of the Wolf sail onward...
Guided by the stars.
Outro
The sea remembers every name...
It simply never tells.
