( Intro Speed Metal – tight, aggressive, cinematic)
[Verse 1]
Moon hangs cold on a fractured tide
Silver cuts where the black waves ride
Crests like riders with hollow eyes
Gallop west where the old world dies
Canvas screams in the rising gale
Timbers groan like a dying whale
Compass spins—no north, no chart
Salt and thunder tear it apart
[Pre-Chorus]
Hands on rope, skin splits to bone
Prayers get lost in the undertow
[Chorus]
Shark attack — no turning back
You fade to black — the great white breaks your back
Teeth in the wake — one fatal crack
Shark attack — no turning back
[Verse 2]
Masts collapse like a broken spine
Rigging lashes in crooked lines
Deck runs red in the pouring rain
Men go under, don’t rise again
Four souls drift where the storm won’t sleep
In a coffin carved from the deep
Then a shadow cuts the foam—
Silent blade where the lost things roam
[Pre-Chorus]
“Did you see—?” then the water splits
Circles tighten… nothing quits
[Chorus]
Shark attack — no turning back
You fade to black — the great white breaks your back
Teeth in the wake — one fatal crack
Shark attack — no turning back
[Bridge – Breakdown]
One scream short, one arm gone
Blood like ink in the grey dawn
Hope was a lie they almost believed
Now the ocean collects what it’s owed and received
[GUITAR SOLO – blazing, melodic chaos → heroic phrasing]
(Start with rapid tremolo picking, rising scale runs like waves building → dive bombs for the strike → shift into a soaring, almost triumphant lead as the fight turns… then a final piercing note)
[Verse 3]
Boat hook raised like a knight’s last vow
Timing lives in the here and now
One clean thrust through the endless blue
Eye goes dark — and the storm breaks through
[Final Chorus]
Shark attack — no turning back
You faced the black — and the white fought back
Steel in your hands — no fear, no slack
Shark attack — no turning back
[Outro]
Morning bleeds through a broken sky
Three still breathe… one left to die
Ocean calms like it never knew—
What it took… and what broke through
Shark attack… (echoed, fading)
