lyrics

Scurvy Johnson

My name is scurvy johnson
I am a scholar and a chief
I need no introduction
I am a slave of this land
One thought, one heart, one dream, it’s all I have, and that’s my life

I serve aboard a sail ship
I’ve seen the world from start to end
The lowlands and the peaks
The driest to the wettest sands
I spy the land from sea, but they won’t, let me ashore

I’d be happy here, with your soulless flow
If only I had somewhere, somewhere else to go
I’d be somewhere there, underneath the stars
Joyful in submission, reeling from afar

You will never know, why she had to go
Seamless contradiction, built a world away
You will never see, what it meant to me
Seamless contradiction, built a world away

My captain is a bastard
You’re born a dog, he’ll throw you a bone
It’s life, but on your knees
He’ll watch you rise before you fall
Now I firmly believe, if they’d gag your thoughts, they’d steal your life

Now I’m a sole survivor
Manipulative to the core
Oh I can still hear voices
But they’re from the bottom of the blue
You’ll find me here, you’ll find them there, if you like

about

An Entire Legion image

An Entire Legion London, UK

An Entire Legion was forged to quench the need to play melodic rock/metal that was both lyrically deep and epic in construct. The band was formed in late 2009 by the current members of UK metal/rock band Tricore.

We have multiple projects, to see them all head on over to -- tricore.bandcamp.com ... more
