Godfisher

Oh mother sea, once bountiful and kind
You turned from me. You left us alone and blind
Forlorn between the tides. A village, devoted still
Desperate to pay the price you demand

On Solstice Day a young-born gifted to the waves
The tribute for a harvest of salt and scales
To gain her favor win her grace

Another day, oh mother Sea. Your avatar is rising up
From blackest depths with tentacles and lidless eyes

No man, no haint: A Godfisher
No fiend, no saint: A Godfisher

The cradle riding the foam the child is gone
Our innocence has died with it, we turn our heads
In shame from the tides. But greed must have taken you
The fish still won't bite. Has it always been just lies?

I will sail out, I will defy!
This god has fed on too much life
I'll hook the monster, hear its cries
I'll drink its blood, I'll watch it die

The hunger and the sacrifice
The superstition, the lies
It ends with me and your demise
Godfisher rise!

No man, no haint: A Godfisher
No fiend, no saint: A Godfisher

The tides, the sea: They speak to me
The god's esprit will cease to be

No man, no haint: A Godfisher
No fiend, no saint: A Godfisher

Forcefully with rod and spear
He pulls the beast out of the sea
And nails it to the wooden plank for all to see
Oh motherfuckers tell your children
Not to seek what he has caught
No eerie god is safe from him and certainly no cod

And certainly no cod!
Who you gonna call? Godfisher!
