Shetland Folk Metallers "Trowsholm" return with a new single "The White Whale", telling the story of Moby Dick in true folk/power metal fashion.
lyrics
In search of the White Whale
I won’t give up or fail
He haunts me in my dreams
And on the cold dark waves
Twas Moby Dick that dismasted me
That bastard took a chunk out of my knee
Aye aye!
Twas that accursed white whale that razeed me!
So I’ll chase him round Good Hope and Cape Horn
Round the Norway Maelstrom
Round perdition's flames
Y’afore I give him up!
The master o the seas
Won’t be master over me
Though he haunts me in my dreams
In search of the white whale
I won’t give up or fail
He haunts me in my dreams
And on the cold waves
But still I will sail on
Till the beast is dead and gone
I won’t be defeated
I will slay the white whale
No woman, wealth or family
Could keep me from my life at sea
My name is Ahab
And I will send that beast to hell
The prophecy was that I should be dismembered
And Aye I lost this leg!
I now prophesy that I will dismember my dismemberer!
Oh the Master of the sea
Won’t be master over me
Though he haunts me in my dreams
In search of the white whale
I won’t give up or fail
He haunts me in my dreams
And on the cold waves
But still I will sail on
Till that beast is dead and gone
I won’t be defeated
I will slay the white whale
The White Whale breaches the waves
And tears our ships apart
Ahab launches his harpoon at the leviathans heart
Sounding his mighty siren, the beast dives down in pain
Ahab tied in harpoon rope, never seen again
In search of the white whale
I won’t give up or fail
He haunts me in my dreams
And on the cold waves
But still I will sail on
Till the beast is dead and gone
I won’t be defeated
I will slay the white whale
