She stands feet apart at the prow of her ship Two loaded pistols cocked on her hips Her quarry's gone to ground In a thick bank of clouds Foolish for thinking he gave her the slip
She feels nothing but the cold wind Her memories of warmth have long grown thin Once long ago The only love she'd known Left her for dead, scarred and broken
Captain Morena's heart is black as night Her quest for vengeance goes long into the twilight For ten years she's hunted a vile, evil man Who cast her into the ocean with his own bare hands
She orders her men to load the cannons Grape shot and iron balls certain to do damage Now that she's caught a glimpse Of that red painted ship The look upon her face is no less than savage
All ahead full she shouts at her men This crew who saved her from an untimely end Her object of ire Stands at a quarter mile This once innocent girl is coming for him
Captain Morena's heart is black as night Her quest for vengeance goes long into the twilight This once peasant girl has become a pirate queen Only with blood will she be appeased
She pulls so close the gas cells collide He stands across from her rigid with pride In his handsome face She sees not a trace Of remorse for the emptiness he left her inside
Captain Morena tells her men to fire The red ship goes up in a black funeral pyre. Sailors and timber All burn to a cinder And still he smiles in his regal attire
She leaps over the side, hungry blade in hand Their swords meet with a terrible clang As she gives a shout And her rage flows out The powder magazine goes out with a bang
Captain Morena's heart was black as night Her quest for vengeance went long into the twilight We last saw her, falling to her death A smile on her face, her sword buried in his chest
