Ancient Mariner

Oh Mariner of the sea
Are you as real as life can be?
Is this a spirit that I see?
Why did you come find me?

Seven days and seven nights I was on the ship
With the dead men eyes starring at me
I couldn't look, I couldn't sleep
I want to jump into the sea!

I pray to die
And my soul to fly
Tell me this is all a lie!
Could I have a second try?

In the darkness of the sea
Shiny creatures swimming gracefully
I thank the Gods for what I see
And gave silent prayers cheerfully

The Gods must have pitied me
For suddenly the curse is broken
They must have heard my plea
From my neck the Albatross has fallen.
