My Dying Bride - Hail Odysseus lyrics
rate meHe surely sails on tameless seasWith idle hours in Devils handsOne hundred men on tameless seasAlways searching for sacred landRain lashing raw shouldersSo heave, onwards, and heave again! With wrists bangled with scars againFrom below, she watched only himSecretly, she crept so grimHe surely sails enchanted seasHearing voices, he believesHail Odysseus, come to usSo heave onwards and heave toward us! With wrists bangled with gold and starsAnd from below she screams out no! Odysseus please don't go! And you must fear the voice you hearAlready now, they're so near'And you will fall at the Sirens call, into their poisoned claws! 'Fearing loss she watched them goThe sirens, she thought, take meFrom below, she leapt into the seeFrom the sea to the land, greeting her, a golden hand'Welcome child, to our isle, become one, take my hand'So it was, the crew were lost, event brave OdysseusInto her arms forevermore she sings no longer upon the shore
