Odysseus Lyrics

You will be Odysseus

And I will be the rock

Which you evade, I'm not a Siren

I can't sing and I can't talk to you

My words impact like paper

When it lands upon the sea

And watch the ink run out and turn to mud

Where my hopes used to be

You will be Ulysses

Nobly tied up to the mast

And no one else but you can hear me

With their ears stuffed up with wax

I watch as women made of feathers

Try to direly lure you in

As they sit perched upon my back

Digging their claws into my skin

My imagination's greater than mythology

So fantastical a plotline it'll never come to be

It'll never come to be

Forget about Penelope

You'll never have as good as me
