lyrics

Odysseus Wept//
As he watched the lights fade//
As he watched the shore fade//
As he watched his heart fade//
Odysseus wept//
As he watched his men sway//
As he watched his men lay//
Along the poppy fields//
Odysseus wept//
As he watched his men break//
Within the hands off all rage//
Within the hands of its rage//
//
He cried to the gods//
Oh father where are you?//
Come slay this man//
He tore out my eye//
Father, Lord of the sea where are you?//
This little man, tore out my eye//
Then Neptune Spoke//
Son, give me his name//
I'll curse him to//
A thousand years//
A thousand years of pain//
He said his name was nothing//
He said his name was nothing//
He said his name was nothing//
He said//
//
As he sails away he cries my name is//
Odysseus//
Odysseus//
Now with your//
Now with your pride you're//
Left to wander//
Left to wander.
