Matinicus Rock

I am a storm on the ocean
Lying in wait for a boat
From the start I was here
Teaching you fear
I am a storm on the ocean.

She is the keeper’s daughter
He’s off to land for supplies
I’ll steal the light
a thief in the night
She is the keeper’s daughter.

I will show you no mercy
Those who stay come to die
With wind and waves
I mark your graves
I will show you no mercy.

She is alone in the tower
No one can hear her cry
With power and rage
I play her mistake
She is alone in the tower.

Who will come to her rescue?
Father is far away
Mother is blind
Three children to mind
Who will come to her rescue?

She will not leave her station
I must reveal my resolve
Blackness and cold
I hand her to hold
She will not leave her station.

I am a storm on the ocean
Lying in wait for a boat
From the start I was here
Teaching you fear
I am a storm on the ocean.
I am a storm on the ocean.
I am a storm on the ocean.
