male and female lead voices

(Intro: Deep and immersive sound of the ocean waves crashing, followed by the high-pitched, melancholic wail of a solo violin weaving through the dark, ancestral drone of a hurdy-gurdy.)

(Verse 1)

I’ve sold my soul to chase the salt and spray  
A splintered deck, a crew of desperate men  
Chasing the devil to his watery den  
The vessel groans beneath the weight of pride
