“Lost Upon the Tide” is a powerful and haunting power metal song that tells the tragic story of the Raft of the Medusa. It captures the doomed voyage of the French frigate, the incompetence that led to its wreck, and the betrayal that left 147 souls stranded on a makeshift raft. As the survivors drift helplessly, the song delves into despair, madness, and the brutal struggle for survival, with the sea itself becoming both captor and grave. With soaring melodies, dramatic instrumentation, and evocative lyrics, the song paints a chilling yet respectful tribute to those lost, echoing their fate through the crashing waves of time.

Lyrics:

Verse:
The banners rise, the anchors break
Bound for fortune, bound for fate
A captain blind, a course untrue
Through treacherous waters we are led
Into the jaws of doom

Verse:
The sirens cry, the timbers moan
The tide has claimed the foolish throne
The golden few take to the boats
A shattered hull, a raft is bound
Then left upon the waves alone

Pre-Chorus:
The chosen flee, the rest are chained
The helpless grasp at fate in vain
A tethered hope…
Then severed rope…

Chorus:
Lost upon the tide, no guiding star
No fate but the deep unknown
Bound by chains of the coldest steel
Winds will howl, the heavens groan—
Storms will rage, but none will kneel
Shadows rise as the dawn turns red
Lost forever, the sea holds the dead

Verse:
The waves rise high, the winds grow wild
Despair consumes the lost exiled
Shadows dance, the fever calls
The cries of ghosts are carried forth
Upon the howling gale

Pre-Chorus:
A sea of ghosts, voices wail
Shattered minds, the spirits pale
The Custom of the Sea remains…

Chorus:
Lost upon the tide, no guiding star
No fate but the deep unknown
Bound by chains of the coldest steel
Winds will howl, the heavens groan—
Storms will rage, but none will kneel
Shadows rise as the dawn turns red
Lost forever, the sea holds the dead

Bridge:
Fifteen stand where hundreds fell
The sea still whispers, the lost still dwell
A sail appears—our final breath
But the tide still sings of death…

Chorus:
Lost upon the tide, no guiding star
No fate but the deep unknown
Bound by chains of the coldest steel
Winds will howl, the heavens groan—
Storms will rage, but none will kneel
Shadows rise as the dawn turns red
Lost forever, the sea holds the dead

Final Chorus:
Lost upon the tide, no guiding star
No fate but the deep unknown
Bound by chains that time won’t heal
Winds still howl, the heavens groan—
Storms may end, but ghosts are real
Shadows rise as the dawn turns red
Lost forever, the sea holds the dead

Outro:
The waves reclaim what time forgets
The ocean keeps its debt…
