Hypothermic I Declare War

Hypothermic
Countless lives aboard the iron
Shrouded in our best attire
Soon we will be fathoms down
Sediment upon the ground

Massive Tonnage
Slipping further from the surface
Freezing water
Warms me up inside

Hypothermic
Screams of horror all around me
Field of bodies
Floating in the night

Twisted metal
Of the wreckage stories high
Breaking, falling
Further from the sky

By the maker!
Save me from the icy hell
On the sea floor
This watery grave I dwell
A story I’ll never tell…
Pale! Stale! Frail!
Floating marvel
Sinking into icy water
Precious moments
Turning into frozen slumber
Rescue futle
Wading in the bloody mire
Soaked in the void
Under stars that fill the sky
