Pulling the weight up against the windIs the plight of the galley slaveChained to this cold bench, six to the oarSentenced to an early graveWith iron in our souls and fire in our wristsSlicing the waves and the seaRotting below, they'll not let us goOnly mutiny or death set us freeArms grow numb and the blood doth dripTo the beat of the drum, from the crack of the whipWe're damned, to the galleyWe're chained, to the galley of painWe're damned, to the galleyWe're slaves, chained to the galley of painSplintered and split, the hands of the doomedEndlessly toil by the hourBodies broken, shackled with hatredAs the soul grows sourOff in the distance, the cry of the gullsAnd the smell of approaching landWith our last ounce of strength, we pull to the shoreAnd dream to escape if we canBut sirens attack, with their songs of loveMermaids surround us as off we shoveOur arms still numb and the blood still dripsTo the beat of the drum, from the crack of the whipDamned, to the galleyWe're chained, to the galley of painDamned, to the galleyWe're slaves, chained to the galley of painWe're rotting in the galley holeDamned to the galleyWe're chained, to the galley of painWe're damned, to the galleyWe're slaves, chained to the galley of painOnly death can set us free
