Lyrics

Yes, it’s me!
It’s me
Of course, it’s me
The one
Who gets it done
Don’t you see?
It had to be
You all turn away
When I gut the fish
Then you cry hooray
Once it’s on a dish
That’s how we do this
Yes, we
Yes, you and me
I have always cared for you
I’ll always do
All these things for you
All these things that you
Are not prepared to do
You?
It’s not just you (Time to put you in check)
There are other idols too (You irritating speck)
See them there
Aren’t you aware (Sorry, little bird)
All these people care (It’s time)
Time to wring your neck
This I know
Once the muse is dead
Questions creep
They’ll burrow in my head
What did I do?
What didn’t I do?
All this time
You’ve shown us what to sing
Wisdom
That’s what you bring
Is that still true?
This coming from you?
You’re lost, little boy
You’ve lost all perspective
You’re ready to throw this away
You call that wise?
Nobody needs to make
A sacrifice
None of you see!
So, it’s down to me
It’s fine
I’ll take all the blame
I’ll take all the pain
Think you see it all
You see just a scrap
You wanna make the call?
You need to hold the map
You cloistered children
It’s time for you
And all who stand with you
Yes, you too
Form a queue
Time to follow through
I won’t have you dying for me
It’s not how this should work
I need you to see you’re
Lost In a moment
Lost in a song
But the thinking’s all wrong
This whole sacrifice deal
You can live without needing to kill
So romantic
Me and you
I wouldn’t want to be
Cut to pieces
With just anybody
Aphrodite
She’d stand with Grace, too
Grace showed her mercy
When she didn’t have to show mercy
Terribly sorry but
I’m afraid
I’ll need to stand here, too
I really need to
Please do
Accept my apology
Of course, it’s me
Because of me
This prophecy
Would come to be
My Olympus is gone
And you’re all looking on
At a stranger
Wearing my face
My Olympus is gone
Now I’m some other one
Just how long has
She been in place?
You set off hoping you could get to somewhere right
But it’s been too many years since the mainland was in sight
There was a voice in me that shouted,
“Athena, you be strong.”
“Be strong, no cost is great enough”
It was wrong
I was wrong
I was wrong and I now I don’t know what the right thing is
I leave it up to you what to do with this
I forgive you, Athena.
Look into me
I know what I see
Yes, a monster
I’ve met monsters
Who weren’t monsters
I’m a monster
To me
I’m sorry, Grace
I’m sorry all of you
I wish Calliope
Could know it, too
She does
She hears you
