The Lady Chained To The Bottom Of Sea
Her hums can be heard from the depths of the sea
Petrifying any who listen to thee
The quiet tune, the soft melody
Floating up to be set free
Along comes a ship with a man at work
Hearing something beautiful, up his ears perk
His eyes roll back as his body jerks
Then falls in the sea with a bewildered smirk
Down, he falls into her dark abyss
He opens his eyes as she gives him a kiss
“Unchain me!”, she looked at him as she hissed
Hesitant, he stared as she offered this:
“You help me, and off you go
I’ll release you back to the world you know
If not, you’ll rightfully reap what you sow
and live for eternity down here in woe”
Desperate to leave, he grabbed the chains
But as soon as he touched them he writhed in pain
“Only the purest of souls can break it without strain”,
she whispered to him, “now you must be slain”
He called out to those above the seaweed
But no one could hear as he shrieked and plead
As another falls victim to the lady of the sea
