Rest in Pieces - текст песни
Rest in Pieces
Integrity of construction, the best money could buy
Her size greater than any, a Belfast shipyard's pride
Signal flags spelled out the word success
For her maneuvering trials
Preservers and lifeboats were not in excess
Un-sinkable no plans to save lives
Athinai reports icebergs and field ice
At seven bells, ahead just five miles
A black hulk against the night's darkness
Disaster along the starboard side
Full speed astern were the orders
It would do them no good
No apparent collision
A rip deep below the waterline
"Come at once we have struck a berg"
Interference in transmission
The newest, largest ship afloat
Had two hours to live
Lower all lifeboats which we have too few
Women and children first
Distress rockets filled the air
Evacuation
Sinking faster, every light ablaze
Machinery, engines, crashing to the blow
Arching vertical, stern points to the sky
The great ship fracturing in two
Watching their families, make it to safety
Fifteen hundred went down
The orchestra played to the last moments
An eerie almost unreal sound
The calm and ice North Atlantic
Titanic's burial ground
