The night was filled with drink and song, with gambling and deceit Pipes of wine were offered up to all who walked the street Harlots latched on each our arms, drunk and full of meat Let’s head back to the brothel for a little more to eat
The smells of sex and food and booze greeted as they passed Tempting us with untold bliss, they knew our thirst was vast We gathered ‘round a table where the liars dice were cast This epic night would soon be gone and it would be our last
Our binge did carry on till the night became the day Till all ill gotten riches were carelessly pissed away As we staggered to our ship, the world began to shake All around us brick and timber threatening to break.
Mouths of hell tore from the ground, whilst fire spewed from below Divine wrath’s eyes set upon us all and our fear began to grow We spent our days with no regret, living life in the afterglow Now the Earth looks to consume us, we all reap what we sow
Sand and unpaved streets did rise and fall like violent waves As buildings turned to rubble leaving many unmarked graves Praying to be saved, towards the church we made to flee But god’s house hath forsaken us, descending deep to sea
Mighty tremors came and went, spreading chaos and debris As off the shore, the water swelled and leapt out of the sea Ghastly tides attacked the town, wailing like a banshee And left behind a salty void where Port Royal should be
“Nothing else was seen but the dead and dying nor heard but shrieks and cries As the sea retreated, taking with it all our sins and lives."
