The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Surrounded by the spoils that piracy has earned
Protect your treasure horde
From those you think would steal
Alone for many years
Long ago your fat was sealed
Paranoia permeates,
Imprisoned by your selfish hate
You think you're seeing thieves
Hallucinations drive you mad
Only fighting with yourself,
Because there's no one there
You life's been paved with greed only cared
For gaining wealth
Spite the gods too many times
At the cost of ship and crew
Now an island's your abode,
With the riches of a king
None of it can you ever spend,
Will you repent your wicked ways
Never freedom from this curse
To spend eternity like this
Impossible to break these chains
You only wish that you could die
Die for gold
You only wish that you could die
Die for gold
Your dreams not realized,
Tormented for your deeds
A punishment that fits the sin
Never sail the seas again
Make your bed on a pile of gems,
An empire of lonely rule
Despair turns to insanity
Your skin turns a precious gleam
The sea god's made his point
He cares not for your remorse
You withheld Poseidon's share
Immortal sentence, You can't die
Die for gold
You only wish that you could die
Die for gold
You only wish that you could die
