Flogging Molly - The Heart of the Sea - Bass Guitar Cover - Speed of Darkness Album

Ahh, This song is the epitome of why I love Flogging Molly -- Dave King's hard hitting lyrics. I cannot relate to this song anymore than I already do, and it couldn't have come at a better time. Also this song sounds so badass! One of my favorites out of the new album.

I originally meant to do this song earlier -- But lemme tell ya, the sustain on the Fender basses are so strong, that little earthquakes would happen in my room every time I hit the low E string, this song hits the open E alot.

So once I got a new bass with less sustain and more punchiness, I went for it. =D

Bass = Allen Woody Rumblekat w/ Rotosound Flatwound strings (oh so smooooth)

Program = Pro Tools LE

Shirt = Official Flogging Molly Polo - M

Thanks for watching!

Sticks and stones
Are for you, you land living bones
Salt and water melt my skin
So don't set sail, you'll end up in
The belly of a whale
No swallowed saint
Will mark your grave
Every light of every day
Eats away into decay

Chorus
But I won't cry myself to sleep
'Cause my soul no longer weeps
For my body lies
In the heart of the sea

Darkness breaks and with her
The morning wakes
She mocks us weary as we drown
Show no remorse, as you will make
A beautiful corpse
Next to the one you love the most
Every light of every day
Eats away into decay
Don't fornicate
With the one you love to hate
You'll wind up dead
Before she bows

Chorus

Another useless confrontation
Leaves eigthy-eight lost constellations
And now the end appears
And my eyes are filled with fear

I am blind, I am blind
Dig me up before I die
I don't want to end up
In the heart of the sea

Now the lesson is learnt
Don't swim out too far from your berth
Walk it's better, even through defeat

Chorus
