Throughout my life I've had good fortune
Blessed with luck, but not shy on skills
But my souls grown cold and my hearts turned dark
And I leave a trail of blood from all the men I've killed
My God my God hear me now
My God my God hear me now
I've seen joy and I've seen beauty
I've seen sorrow and I've seen pain
but one thing that n'er befell me
is the fury of the attack that came
My God my God hear me now fulfill this pirate's plea
Don't leave me here in silence, don't taunt me as I lie
My God don't bring the rolling thunder, and hear this sailors cry
The sun sets west and the chill beset and the rain falls from the sky
Don't leave me here in silence; don't leave me here to die
Fifty good men now in judgment before you
A taste of heaven, before hells ride
Fifty souls that once fought beside me
With a vow to pillage and to brave the tide
My God my God hear me now fulfill this pirate's plea
(Chorus)
With the ship ablaze, my insides out
And my longing to live has grown numb
Do my prayers fall on deaf ears?
I should be dead but for some damn reason I'm hanging on
My God my God hear me now Fulfill this pirate's plea
