Lyrics Into The Drink - Sacred Oath

Into The Drink

Hours before the dawn
In the Land of the Rising Sun
Shepherd to Black Sheep One
The hero pulls his boots on
He’s unencumbered
By others' expectations
His kills are numbered
As are his days
No care for medals
Records or recognition
To win the war
That’s his only mission
He’s counting zeros
Tracers into flames
This one got his number
But not his name
Dive to the whitecaps
And push the throttle
Fire in the engine
Bullets in the bottle
No way around it
This ship is gonna sink
Pulled from the cockpit
And into the drink
Dive to the whitecaps
And push the throttle
Fire in the engine
Bullets in the bottle
No way around it
This ship is gonna sink
Pulled from the cockpit
And into the drink
Bravery can’t always save you
But tales of it live on
Legends can inspire us
To find what we believe in
Stand for the truth
Fight to the death
You may find tomorrow
And draw another breath
