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
