Titanic's Lament

- | LYRICS |-
Titanic’s Lament
Silence
Now there’s silence
In the dark deep
In the stillness
Ageless
Time has halted
As the world turns
It's still 1912
In the abyss
Rusting palace
She was splendid
Jewel of Ireland
Unsinkable
Man’s great ego
Now his sorrow
On the seafloor
In the darkness
Where her ghosts live
Can you hear it?
It’s the music
They’re still
Playing
Midst her sinking
Watch her flares fly
Shooting stars
Into the
Night sky
Officers cry
Women, children first
Leave your men behind
Or founder
Oh, the horror
As Titanic sank
In a sea of glass
Nearer, my God, to Thee
Nearer to Thee
Nearer, my God, to Thee
Nearer to Thee
Her lights died
Her souls cried
As all fell
In a sea of ice
Survivors
Who saw her
Say they
Still, remember
How the
Silence
Filled the darkness
Fifteen hundred
Vanished voices
Night stars
Mark her graveyard
Where she’ll always stay
Mid the shoes where once
They lay

I’m going to show this song to my friend, because he’s actually one of the descendants of the Titanic survivors, his great grandmother and grandfather Who lived in Cornwall and decided to move to America were survivors of Titanic, and when his grandfather grew up, he came back to Cornwall, and named his house the Carpathia after the ship that saved him and his mother.

[@Karliene]

What a wonderful story! How lovely to name their house after the Carpathia.

[@wannabegaymer]

It is hard to fathom that a little over 110 years ago the Titanic sank and how her sinking impacted our world. The final survivor passed away in 2009, but I feel she would have appreciated this song. God rest the 1500 souls lost that night and the ones left behind

[@delphiniriddle215]

One of my mom's old nursing home patients was supposed to travel on the titanic with his friends, but something kept him from going, so he gave his third class ticket to another friend. He said he was glad about never boarding titanic because his friends died when she went down. I believe it was back in the 90s when my mom took care of him.

[@wolftal1178]

You did Titanic and it’s lost passengers justice.👍 Thank you.

[@Karliene]

I’m so glad you think so. Thank you for listening.

[@ahsokatano6567]

I am convinced Karliene has lived these lives, experiences these events. With how she never fails to capture the raw emotions in her songs. I believe she has lived many lives before and she remembers. No one else can do what she does.

[@TheWolfboy567]

As I hear this, I see myself swimming among the once grand halls and galleries. I can see her shattered wreckage spread across the ocean bed. I see the chandelier hanging with rusticles and the broken staircase. Oh, the sorrow of the Titanic. This is a beautiful song and dedication.

[@paulmccormick6986]

Your beautifully sung lyrics conjure mystical imagery of that tragic night and the 110 years since that she has laid on the bottom. I love your beautiful tribute to the death of this famous ship and the heroic souls she still watches over in the silence of the dark Atlantic. Titanic's shocking death, a slap in the face of man's ego, will never be forgotten as long as people like you live.❤

[@Karliene]

Thank you so much, my friend. I love that you enjoyed it. I could write about this sad, beautiful ship forever.

[@daddyc6984]

@@Karliene you have done a wonderful job in this song about Titanic. I just found this song tonight and will be adding this song to my list of songs done by you. You have a very beautiful voice and have wonderful gift with music. Please keep making music for us to listen too. :)

[@Codatronic]

This song is outright glorious, I really love how the lyrics link into the emotions, both positive and negative that are born from the ocean, both a cold graveyard and a frozen place of peace.

[@pallas_athena_]

I love how Karliene's songs are all able to make you feel a different emotion.

[@kaitlynamira3916]

You should definitely do a titanic concept album like you did with Ann Boleyn or Queen Elizabeth. That would be absolutely incredible.

[@silversungaming9451]

I second this! (Coming from a year later)

[@lisanova125]

Dear Karliene, this is so beautiful and sad. This song made me cry. Just recently I watched a letsplay video where the gamer did the Titanic experience (probably you've heard of this) as one of the passengers. I never expected a game would make me cry so hard. The coldness of circumstances seem just unbearable, and it's so hard to realise that sometimes all you can do is nothing but watch and feel this pain. But it's also heartwarming to know that somehow we can kind of not beat the circumstances, but at least to show that the love and memory will live forever.

[@flowerfaerie8931]

It has been a full month since I first heard this song and I’m still obsessed. The “Nearer My God To Thee” part rips my heart out of my chest every time.

[@malfoy4874]

As a person with a blood bond with the Titanic, I find this song able to evoke the ambience that surrounded the travel every moment from the beginning to the end with a peaceful and sad veil. Amazing job❤

[@grymvinter]

Thanks, yotube algorithm. Always the right video at the right time. ...

[@xboneonefan29]

Karliene....you are an amazing singer...this song is the inspiration for my poem Ghosts from the abyss By Doug Bushey Darkness Down in the deep Her spirit lingers Phantom weeping From the tragic night From what was once a great vessel Now lies a rusting grave Hear the cries Of the ghosts from the abyss Cries for help Screams of terror Sorrowful weeping Rang in the ears Of the few who survived But the silence speaks the loudest 1,500 voices Forever silenced But the voices Still speak out The ones who were gone And missed Are the phantoms The ghosts From the abyss

[@dariusalexander8985]

I know that like every other song you make it'll be a masterpiece.

[@Aoi2bianco]

[@crimsonskies1987]

As someone who lost a relative on the Titanic and has had a vast interest in her since I was 5. This had me in tears, what a beautiful tribute and masterpiece of a song. Absolutely melancholic and beautiful. Thankyou for being so amazing. Xxx

[@flowerfaerie8931]

I did not give you permission to make me feel like this wtf. This is absolutely heartbreaking, not the crying sort of sad but the deep, wrenching *pain* in my chest that slowly, ever so slowly, fades into a sort of contentment, of grief mixed with the satisfaction of knowing that even if Titanic and many of her passengers could not be saved, they are still remembered and dearly loved.

[@airtonspeckneves6352]

Uma história trágica e pungente, sempre relembrada. Sua música simboliza a tristeza legada por esse navio.

Ok, I needed to come back and comment again cause I’ve been listening to this over and over. First, CHILLS! Every time I listen to it. Second, this single five minute song was better than the entire titanic movie in my opinion. How do you manage to create such gorgeous masterpieces every single time?! And this one was truly exceptional! Good lord you are such a talented wonderful soul.

[@RoxaneGenot]

I just love, every time, this feeling of rediscovering historic events through the bewitching sound of your voice and your poetic lyrics. You don't only sound gorgeous, you manage to turn everything into its most gorgeous form through whatever you create, and everything that gets the chance to be subject to your creative process becomes timeless. You're such a siren, and this was breathtaking.

[@Karliene]

Ah Roxane. Thank you so much. Coming from you, that’s the best compliment.

[@TheDenofBadgers]

As haunting as a banshees scream but yes as beautiful as a field of poppies. Simply amazing, your tributes to death are some of the finest pieces of music around.

[@queen_ch3rry]

I am in tears. This is truly the most brilliant, heartrending song I've ever heard specifically about Titanic and her lost ones. You paid honor to both beautifully, adding a little flash of warm light to the eternal darkness beneath the North Atlantic where Titanic slowly slips away from us, one day to become only a memory.

Rest in peace to the Titan 5, who died going down to see history with their own eyes, the ocean is an unforgiving place, and we must remember to show her the utmost respect and never take mother nature's power for granted..

One of the victims being PH Nargeolet, a man that did so much to preserved Titanic’s memory …

[@OldManMcLoyf]

Rest in peace the 78 people who died from a migrant ship sinking off the coast of Greece this month. All lives lost that were ignored by the media this month in favor of a few billionaires who knew the risks of their expensive adventure.

[@Maniac61675]

@@OldManMcLoyfhere comes the clown with 0 knowledge of what the hell he is talking about. No, the media didn’t favor this because they were “rich” (PH Nargeolet wasn’t a billionaire, he was one the top Titanic experts in the world), if this had happened anywhere else in the ocean it wouldn’t have been as viral. The media crazed about this was because they were going to see the *Titanic* the most famous ship in history, that’s it. That’s what generator the buzz, the Titanic, and the media knows Titanic by itself is a selling name, just look to what happened to the Costa Concordia and how the news compared that accident with Titanic despite both incidents having 0 in common or whenever a planet crashes they call it “The Titanic of the skies”. That’s what happened, people didn’t care about this and made it a big story because there were billionaires on board, but because it was related to the Titanic. Also, I don’t recalled the Thai Boys, the Chilean Miners or the ARA San Juan to be rich people and they still got a lot of attention and media coverage.

[@POOLIEY]

Very beautiful song. It connects the Edwardian Era style of music with the instrumental, alongside the true tone of the tragedy. I also like how the song is structured, of her story. In how it starts with how she is today, resting in darkness and silence. But Titanic has life still reminiscing. from seeing survivors belongings inside Titanic, to the equipment frozen from when they were last used. Then the music goes into a more fast pace and louder tone. Indicating the sinking. How she went down slowly and elegantly, but turned to panic in the last portion of the sinking. Which the song reflects. Then when the line "Nearer My God to Thee" connects to the song represented by Titanic from the band. Their last efforts to try and keep the situation calm, and once Titanic sank, silence began to get louder, as the 1496 people floating were lost to the icy water. And where silence loomed over one of the most impactful tragedies to ever dawn the ocean. It is a beautiful song. And many more should hear it!

[@kaneki-ken96]

Milady, it has been a privilege listening to your song today 💖🎶

[@cpt.roosto2097]

What a beautiful song! I have always felt a deep connection to the Titanic, like I was there when she went down. I went to the Titanic/Body World Exhibit when it was out near LA, and when we started the Titanic part, I had the hardest time walking through it and looking at everything-my heart hurt and I wanted to cry so bad but my body wouldn't let me. It was one of the strangest feelings I have ever felt in my life. A huge thanks to you for this song. It's one of your best yet!

[@silversungaming9451]

What a phenominal song! I've been listening to it on Spotify on repeat! That transition to Nearer My God, To Thee sends shivers down my spine every time!

Amazing as always. I like the lyrics. When I saw the movie Titanic for the first time on TV, it's such a beautiful and sad movie. It's also sad that the ship sunk and a lot of people passed away in real life. May those people rest in peace. I watch the movie once in a while.

[@camilavera6665]

Oh, what a gift! Thank you! Listened to it, bought it. This is so very beautiful. I found you via your Anne Bonnie work (first the single, then the album), and I must say that I would be very happy if you were to tell the whole story of the Titanic and its passengers. Thanks again for your music. You are an amazing storyteller. The Anne Bonnie album is better than any pirate film I ever watched. I could 'see' what was happening and wished that someone would put it to film with your music as the soundtrack.

[@Karliene]

Thank you so much for such encouraging compliments on my work. I love that you’re an ‘Anne Bonny’ fan because I so enjoyed immersing myself in her world, and telling her story so much. The story of the Titanic could absolutely be a whole album. I’ve definitely been thinking about it. Usually I let the ideas evolve for a bit and if I feel I have at least 3 solid songs, I’ll go for it. It would be beautiful to expand on this song in the same way I did with Anne Bonny. :)

[@hopelessgeek3776]

@@Karliene And I will be there to enjoy it :) Thank you so much for taking your time to respond! May I ask you a question? I made the New Year's resolution to support more musicians because I realised how much music I have started consuming on YT without actually buying it (I am an old school "buy the CD" kind of person who has come to realise that that I haven't really been doing that lately). So, I switched to buying tracks on iTunes. So, my question is: What is the best way to support you? Patreon? YT? Buying the tracks? You have easily become one of my favourite artists and I want you to be able to do so freely.
