00:07Grey dawn on the panes at sea
00:12Tar and salt in every crease
00:18We chased a rumor down the breeze
00:24Golden grief in every tale we'd heard
00:29English tongues in a Spanish word
00:35The whole coast like a sleeping beast
00:41White walls where the jungle meets
00:45Church bell cutting through the heat
00:53One red banner over broken huts
00:58Iron gates and armor in the dust
01:03Raise your eyes, boy, the ground is burning
01:08Nothing here is as it seems
01:12Under that crimson flag
01:14Returning our chains and ash
01:17And shattered dreams
01:19We came as wolves
01:21But now we're learning
01:23Who hunts who in a stranger's land
01:27Stand your ground, the tide is turning
01:30Salt on our lips, blood on our hands
01:42He stepped out in polished steel
01:47A smile sharp enough to peel
01:51Every secret from a guilty soul
02:00Spoke of crown and sacred rite
02:05Of keeping darkness in the light
02:09But behind him faces thin as reeds
02:16Shoulders scarred like river beds
02:21Eyes like crows that once were fed
02:28Children counting
02:30Every whip cracks fall
02:34Mothers staring straight through stone and wall
02:39Raise your eyes, boys
02:41The ground is burning
02:43Nothing here is as it seems
02:47Under that crimson flag
02:50Returning our chains and ash
02:53And shattered dreams
02:55We came as wolves
02:56But now we're learning
02:58Who hunts who in a stranger's land
03:03Stand your ground, the tide is burning
03:06Salt on our lips, blood on our hands
03:16Night council by the mooring lights
03:21Night council by the mooring lights
03:21Night council by the mooring lights
03:22Every call upon this evening's home
03:25Murmured oaths over sour wine
03:30Don't you choke
03:31With thieves
03:34With thieves
03:34I said
03:36But not like this
03:40Tonight
03:41A map
03:43A hurried kid
03:50Treasure high, boys
03:53The ground is burning
03:55Nothing here is as it seems
03:59Under that crimson flag
04:02Returning our chains and ash
04:05And shattered dreams
04:07We came for gold
04:09But now we're burning
04:10All these ledgers
04:13All these brands
04:14Break their locks
04:16The tide is turning
04:18Salt on their wounds
04:20Stealing our hands
04:29Smoke cland where the chapel stood
04:35He lay staring up at wood
04:40Saints above him black with soup
04:46Ships that anchored
04:49Loaded, carved, and scarred
04:54Brown hands finally cutting our last rope apart
