Metal Church Rest In Piece Lyrics

Integrity of constructionThe best money can buyHer size is greater than anyA Belfast shipyard's prideSignal flags spelled out the word "Success"On her maneuvering trials
Preservers and lifeboats were not in excessUnsinkable, no plans to save livesAthinai reports icebergs and field iceAt seven bells ahead just five milesA black hulk against the night's darknessDisaster along starboard side
Full speed astern were the ordersIt would do them no goodNo apparent collisionA rip deep below the waterline
Come at once, we have struck a bergInterference in transmissionThe newest, largest ship afloatHad two hours to liveLower all lifeboats, we have too few!Women and children first!Distress rockets fill the airAbandom Ship!"

Sinking faster, every light ablazeMachinery, engines, crashing to the bowArching vertical, stern points to the skyThe great ship fracturedEveryone must die
Watching their families make it to safetyFifteen hundred went downThe orchestra played to the last momentAn eerie almost unreal soundThe calm and ice North AtlanticTitanic's burial ground
