about

About this track: Pyxis is a small and faint constellation in the southern sky, located close to those forming the old constellation of the ship Argo Navis (Carina, Puppis and Vela). It chronicles the story of Mobi Dick, the White Whale, through mariner Ishmael’s eyes. He tells the story of the obsessive quest of Ahab, captain of the whaler Pequod, for revenge on Moby Dick that on the previous whaling voyage bit off Ahab's leg at the knee.

lyrics

Call me Ishmael and I will narrate
all the torment brought to us by fate
by the creed of a deranged captain
to kill a monster and worst things to happen

Farewell, anchors aweigh
in foreign shores we are drifting astray
caught in the same harpoon hurled for the foe
should have known better, be still and know

From north to south, from sails to the keel
you can't break a mariner's will
in pelagic depths we shall roam

From west to east, from stem to the stern
with odds even will we return
a leap of faith to reach our home

Tread sloping masts and dipping prow
my finite body weighs down, my soul to disavow
wake from your slumber, won’t reach the coast
because truth is, not all who wander are lost

Though waves toss, yet they cannot prevail
still pursue to slay the white whale
from hell’s heart I stab, for hate’s sake I spit
my last breath at thee for my maker to meet
